cross browser problems

JitseSchaafsma · April 9, 2003

My site (multiple pages, javascript) is working okay when opening with explorer 5 under OS 9.2. Also Windows professional with explorer 6 no problems at all.

Under OS X, explorer 5.2 the OK and CANCEL button do not work ( i have included the code). When pressing nothing happens. javascript is enabled because i use javascript to get to this page.

Can anyone explain me why this page (actually the buttons) do not work under explorer 5.2, OS X.

This is the code

Thanks Jitse

Try this:

window.document.location = "http://10.....

I removed the .href

Good Luck.

I have just been doing some tests with:

location = "http://.....

document.location = "http://....

window.location = "http://....

All with and without .href and none seem to work from a Function within IE 5.2 on OS X. However, it works OK in the Body tag with "onload".

My guess is that it is a Microsoft bug

Good Luck.

Garry

p.s. All of the combinations worked in Netscape Navigator.

Thanks gary for testing,

(*no doubt microsof will explain this is a security patch that they bring out every day *)

I have also tested the page on Windows XP explorer 6, the same problem with the buttons.

Could you please explain your remark about the upload?

Is there a work around for this problem.

Any suggestions are welcome.

This works in IE 5.2 OS X:

<body onload="document.location = 'http://....';">

So, for some reason the "onload" function of the Body tag will replace the document.location, however, a declared Function will not.

Good Luck.
