i hope you haven't solved this problem yet. if you have, i hope this can be
useful in some way to you and others.
i wasn't able (with my limited play time these days) to figure out exactly
what was causing netscape to not play nice with your javascript. i tested
it with a text box (instead of a hidden field) and it still wouldn't write
the value to the field or report it in the alert().
so, since i felt bad about being stumped and slow in responding to your
problem, i took 10-15 minutes to write the functionality from scratch to see
if the problem was reproducible from dissimilar script. fortunately, i was
unable to reproduce it and have succeeded in building a version that does
what you want it to. i even managed to end up with a solution that's
slightly smaller as well. enough bragging, here's the goods:
