What I said was that the two browsers behaved differently. And the specification at that time as far as I could see did not cover the case . The fact is that the same code behaved completely differently in two browsers. I have shown you what the fixed code looked like. My recollection is that I cursorily investigated the spec. to see if there was a reportable bug, but decided that in this particular case the code specification was sufficiently poor that either side could claim they had implemented JavaScipt *not in contradiction* to the spec. Why you cant accept that and have to insist that I am lying, is beyond me. Perhaps you need to get laid or something. I have absolutely no reason to make it up. -- Gun Control: The law that ensures that only criminals have guns.
