Applet emthod calls in IE5

Posted by Chris Bowman on July 08, 2001 at 9:41 AM

Hi,
I am having a problem re NS4 and IE5 differences, and calling applet methods.
The application I am working on uses an applet to create a URL. This is called by a button:

The applet is declared as :

The function code is:

function SubmitClick() {
var sResultLink = "Error";
sResultLink = self.document.javaSearchDialog.ExternSubmitAdvanceSearch(sSearchMode);
self.location = sResultLink;

return false
}

When I use this page in NS4 everything works fine. When I use it in IE5
the submit button does not appear to work.

I am working on a Mac, so both browsers are Mac versions.

Any suggestions would be really helpful.

Thanx,

Chris
