Take a look att this simple code:

<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function testare() {
document.write(document.forms[0].elements[0].value);
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<input type="text" value="saedhdh" />
</form>
<p><a href="javascript:testare()">test</a></p>
</body>
</html>

This works good in IE6 (SP1), but "fails" in NN7.02.

The problem seems to be the line "document.write...".

In IE the loading stops as soon as this line is executed, but in NN7 it just goes on and on... (doing nothing).

Is this a known error in NN or is there something wrong in my code. :confused:

The real code is longer and includes writing to popups, and so on... but to show the problem I wrote this simple code.

Proper way if using statement is

document.open();
document.write(document.forms[0].elements[0].value);
document.close();
this will solve your problem

Don't work...

document.open(); makes the document.forms[0]... to be invalid.

How about this?

function testare() {
var frmval = document.forms[0].elements[0].value;
document.open();
document.write(frmval);
document.close();
}

This meas there is something else wrong in your code which is not posted here.The snippet I posted above will work provided there is at least 1 form in the page and this form have 1 element that has a value attribue.

:confused:
