[thelist] Netscape 6 loads page twice

[Charlie Llewellin]

thanks for the response -
I am using javascript below to write out the form:

    document.writeln('<form name="suggest" method="post"
action="/admin/feedback.php">');
    document.writeln('<td valign="middle" class="magsmallstyle">');
    document.writeln('<input type="hidden" name="refer_page"
value="'+top.location.href+'">');
    document.writeln('<input type="hidden" name="title"
value="'+document.title+'">');
    document.writeln('&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="#" onclick="commentit();return
false;">Comment<\/a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<\/td>');
    document.writeln('<\/form>');

which ain't working.. only in Netscape 6

Actually, I am liking this browser more and more as I use it.

<tip type="Netscape 6">
Netcape logo won't stop twirling? One thing to check that all your hidden
form elements are within <td></td> tags

    document.writeln('<input type="hidden" name="refer_page"
value="'+top.location.href+'">');
    document.writeln('<input type="hidden" name="title"
value="'+document.title+'">');
     document.writeln('<td valign="middle" class="magsmallstyle">');
    document.writeln('&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="#" onclick="commentit();return
false;">Comment<\/a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<\/td>');

The above will cause the logo to continue to twirl. Putting the first two
lines after the third fixes it.
