html_code_clinic thread: javascript does not work in NS

Priya,

Which version of Netscape are you using? I tested your script in Netscape 
6 and it works fine. There are a couple of things that you would like to 
verify and fix probably..
1) You are not closing <OPTION> tag with </OPTION>
2) Usually, you would look for the text of a selected index by
document.formname.selectboxname.options
[document.formname.selectboxname.selectedIndex].value
2)You would like to check if selectbox supports onClick event. When I 
changed the onClick event to onChange, the script was working in Netscape 
4.7....

But even without any changes, it works in Netscape 6.0


> Hi friends,
>  In the HTML page I accept a value from a combobox(s1) & writes in the 
textfield(t1).This works well in ie but in netscape it creates some 
problem. The textfield(t1) contains the null value in the textbox instead 
of the s1 value. And also, the size of the page vary in netscape. some 
fields are not displayed and some fields sizes are changed.please tell me 
what to do? give me some useful ideas.
