I have had problems with Access 2003 and merging to Word with code that worked perfectly fine for Access 97 mail merges. But I've found the solution!!! The code you have used (above) where you have... objWord.MailMerge.OpenDataSource _ ...is not needed anymore! When you directly mention the...

Got it!!! I moved the hidden field and the form it was in further up in my code ABOVE the place where I had these lines: <script language="JavaScript1.2" src="MenuRollovers_toppro.js"></script> <script language="JavaScript1.2" src="Browser_Check.js"></script> Once I did this, Netscape...

Yep, I tried that too. It just gives me a blank page. (But the source is intact.) Javascript is not disabled. It's interesting that it returns 'null' and not 'undefined' when it looks for the element though. I'll figure it out eventually...thanks for all your time today.

Oh, and just to add, with the code just getting the element only, it returns null. But I don't understand why it's null when there definitely IS an element on the webpage and when IE sees it.

No I want the value, but when I write document.getElementById('my_sess_id').value, the page just displays a blank. This only happens in Netscape. I've also tried document.getElementById('my_sess_id').name, but that doesn't do it either.

These are the references to the .js in the html: <script language="JavaScript1.2" src="MenuRollovers_toppro.js"></script> <script language="JavaScript1.2" src="Browser_Check.js"></script> The line that calls the function get_link() link_me = get_link(id1, id2); the variable 'link_me' is...

Not yet, but the only thing I can think of is that it's something to do with the javascript being accessed as src .js file? The javascript is not therefore on source view and maybe in Netscape it needs to be? Clutching at straws here... Thanks for trying to help.

I did try that. But that doesn't wok either. And I tried the getElementByTag also and using the forms[0] array. All these work in IE but not Netscape. It's driving me mad!

Ok, ok, but I thought there may have been a browser issue, a way of using the getElementById in Netscape because...I can get the following to work in IE but it won't work in Netscape 6 or 7. The 'my_sess_id' is the id for a hidden form field. Is this the problem? Can it not access hidden...

Rachel, Did you ever get the answer as to why this didn't work in Netscape? I can use getElementByID in IE, but the code won't work in Netscape and only displays a blank page. Did you ever figure this out? Maria

Many thanks to you both! Rob, I investigated the $SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] value and hurrah! I see exactly what you mean! $_POST forms KNOW that the value is an array but $_GET forms haven't a clue. I didn't know that! I appreciate your help very much. Maria

I have a form with dynamically created drop-down lists. I send ALL list 'states' back to the same page with a $_GET string so that the drop-down boxes still hold the user's selections as they continue to select from the remaining lists on the form. The $_POST action ONLY happens after all lists...

Thanks Gary, I specifically don't want to use iframes or any frames because I know the form content will be long and I want the whole page to scroll, not just the frame. But thanks for the suggestion. The funny thing is that originally I DID have frames and the content of the forms were ALWAYS...

Is there any possible way to reload only the forms on a page and NOT the images? (so that the images just stay there) The forms on a page contain continuously updating data but if a user returns to a page they've already been to, the latest database updates will not show until the refresh...

Rudy, You are right. Thank you. I've changed the datatype to CHAR(1) and it's grand now. Maria
