[Javascript] Page loaded

[Peter Brunone]

Andrew,

	Have you considered the META REFRESH tag for the hidden frame,
which would then populate a hidden field in the visible page?  I have a
chat application ( http://aspalliance.com/peterbrunone ) that makes
copious use of the refresh header and never sets off the blinking
taskbar button.

Cheers,

Peter

I have a page which goes and checks for new info every n
seconds.....with a setTimeOut - the script just goes via a hidden frame
so the whole page is not reloaded...

I want this to act as an alert for a user if he/she is in another window
with my site still open....

The problem is that after checking for the new info, the Browser icon in
the taskbar by the start button highlights on and off telling me the
page is finished loading, whether or not there is new info....

I just want the user to be alerted if the script has provided NEW
information

cheers
