How can I check for presence of a object on a page ?
Thanks.

If by object you mean a named button, text field, image, etc. then here is one way...
Code:
<html>
<body>
<input type=button id=btnDemo>
</body>
<script language=&quot;javascript&quot;>
 var chk1 = document.all.btnDemo;
 var chk2 = document.all.btnNoExist;

 alert(&quot;btnDemo: &quot; + chk1 + &quot;\nbtnNoExist: &quot; + chk2)

 if (chk2 != &quot;[object]&quot;)
  alert(&quot;The object doesn't exist&quot;);
 else
  alert(&quot;Found object&quot;);
</script>
</html>

Hope it helps, Rob
