elegidito, Thank you for your swift response - that was a great help and it now works again! Does the same thing apply to Netscape and Firefox? ~tg

I have a fairly simple piece of code that displays a small description window when you roll over certain glossary words - the window is positioned wherever your mouse sits on the page: function moveElement(element) { var e = window.event; if (e.pageX || e.pageY) { MouseX = e.pageX...

Chessbot, Thank you for that - I feel a bit stupid now since I used the getElementById function in the functions above. Thanks again, ~tg

Thanks for clearing that up Chris. At least now I know that it cannot be done I can work on something else. It won't be too much trouble to minimise the number of words the function searches for on any given page - this could be done server-side to speed things up. Which just leaves the issue...

Hi, I've pieced together the following code from various sources throughout tek-tips but have hit on a couple of problems. The function of this code is to scan the text of a loaded page for specific keywords - when they are found it 'draws' a hidden table with a discription of the word that...

This is a great function - is there anyway I can limit this further so that it only highlights keywords in a specified block of text? I've put a DIV tag around the text I would like this function to apply to but I can't seem to modify the code to search just the text in the DIV tag. Any ideas...

Thanks for the response bill, I have a couple of further questions though: This particular software tool will be designed to select a subset of records from an Access database, and then pass this subset (or totals from fields or similar) to the Flash for graphical display. The selection can be...

Is it possible for Flash to read in data from an Access database whilst both are running from a CD. I appreciate that data could not be written to the database but could it be read? ~tg

I have a subform displaying a datasheet something like this: Line ID | Booking Ref | Cost ---------------------------- 1 | 625467 | 2567 2 | 625467 | 657 3 | 788676 | 7635 4 | 677788 | 764 Because it is a datasheet the user can highlight any number...

Thanks for the input PH but unfortunately I cannot get this to work. Is it possible to do it in two stages? The first query making a table and then the second removing the records I don't want? ~tg

Well, at the moment it goes something like: SELECT TABLEA.BOOKING, TABLEA.VALUE, TABLEB.VALUE FROM TABLEA INNER JOIN TABLEB ON TABLEA.VALUE = TABLEB.VALUE WHERE TABLEB.VALUE >=(TABLEA.VALUE-(([TABLEA.VALUE]/100)*10)) And TABLEB.VALUE <=(TABLEA.VALUE+(([TABLEA.VALUE]/100)*10))

Thanks PHV, that's perfect! I wonder of ou could help me with another problem I am having with this same set of data? Again I'm comparing the two and I want to produce a set of results where the Booking is the same and where the value field matches within a given tolerance (say 10%). I have...

Hi, I have two identical tables A and B both with similar sets of data. What I want to do is create a query that displays all of the data in table A where one field (X) is the same, but where field (Y) is not the same in table B. E.G TABLE A ID BOOKING VALUE 23 6876 23...

Thanks Dan, I eventually worked out a way around this. The reason why it got so complicated is because this is all being generated from a database. var l1 = new Array(); var l2 = new Array(); var l3 = new Array(); l1[0] = new Array(); l1[1] = new Array(); l1[2] = new Array(); l1[3] = new...

Any further help with this would be greatly appreciated. ~tg
