[Javascript] Help with forwarding to another page

[Chris Tifer]

Are you getting a JavaScript error in your browser? If so, what does 
it say? I just tried a sample very similar to yours with what looked like 
the same exact code and it worked for me.

Show us the code that has been spit out by ASP instead of what it looks 
like before.  Maybe the sPicture is something weird.
