OK, I did some fancy schmancy stuff with a textarea in a form and apparently it works in internet explorer, but not in any Gecko-based HTML engine like Netscape. check the www.infamousunderground.homelinux.com homepage javascript source to see what I'm doing. What I want it to be is Netscape/Mozilla compatible along with Internet Explorer. Can someone tell me what's wrong here? I tried trillions of help sites and they're mainly for IExplorer (stupid Micro$oft! :-))
Thanx --Pat--
A textarea is an element in a form, thus:
<form name="myform">
<textarea name="thetext" id="thetext" class="iu" rows=18 cols="80%">

</textarea>
</form>
Everytime you need the value of textarea use:
document.myform.thetext.value (7 times)
A search with "document+forms+netscape" would have given you this link:

Not stupid Micro$oft, but stupid $teve Job$; Apple doubled the price of their computers when they were first released, pricing themselves out of the market.
