Bill,

getElementsByTagName may work in newer versions of IE (I haven't checked),
but you're probably safer with var x = document.all.tags("TD") for including
older versions. For Netscape 6.x and Opera, use getAttribute('class') ==
"td_text" instead of className == "td_text" . className works in Netscape 6,
but getAttribute works in both. For Netscape 4.x, you're on your own ;).
