Without knowing what error you are seeing I can only guess as the code you have posted seems to work as intended for me (IE can be so lax sometimes).

However, I suggest you change your function like this to use 'document.login' instead of 'form'

function pasuser(form)
{
if (document.login.id.value=="michelle")
{
if (document.login.pass.value=="justin")
{
location="target.html"
}
else
{
alert("Invalid Password")
}
}
else { alert("Invalid UserID")
}
}

your password is 2 long, it can't contain more than 6 chars "michelle" should be "michel", justin is fine. however, i don't recommend using this type of validation because anyone with a little websitedeveloppigexperience can hack that

just go to view source code and you can see it

you can even see the site it if reffering to
