[thelist] Frustrating problem

I've had another thought as to what the problem might be.

Originally, I used several parameter in the query line and the code in the
SRC read:

//PARSING QUERY STRING - & VARIABLES
var qStr= location.search.substring(1);
var parsedQString=qStr.split("&");
var mrAddress= parsedQString[0];
var agentName= parsedQString[1];
var epw= parsedQString[2];

Then I didn't need two of the parameters so I opened up the page with:

ctwsee.html?aa   (I only needed the "aa")

and (lazily) reduced the code to:

var qStr= location.search.substring(1);
var parsedQString=qStr.split("&");
var mrAddress= parsedQString[0];

Could this cause a problem with some browsers?

Anyway, I've now changed it to:

var mrAddress = location.search.substring(1);

Does this cure the problem?
