Hi Robert,

WOW!! Many thanks for your help and sample code. This has a great 
incentive for me to learn more about Javascript. Some of these concepts 
you presented here are still not entirely clear to me. So could you 
please elaborate a bit more on these questions:

1 - You are using the window.onload =3D function (). In my case I will 
have to use a <span> on a <a> tag (I will have a link at the navigation 
bar at the top of the page. This is in the topFrame but my tables are in 
the mainFrame. So I think I will have to go to the parent frame first?? 
IS that right?) Is it ok if I use the onlcik event on the <span> ?

2- You said: "If you're only targetting IE, then exhange innerHTML to 
innerText"

Please could you explain the difference to me?? I am targetting IE and 
Netscape.

3 - When my tables are generated they will have IDs like table1, table2 
...This does not affect the use of 
document.getElementsByTagName("table"); does it??

Agai many thanks for your time and effort.

Cheers,

Claudio
