[RESOLVED] Firefox & Javascript Issue

[Lil Ms Squirrel]

Mendhak kindly helped me with the following code towards a custom control I'm writing. It works happily in IE, but not in Firefox. Can anyone help me out with why and what I need to do to change it? :confused:


<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td style="CURSOR: hand" onclick="navigate('http://www.microsoft.com');" width="100%">microsoft.com</td>
</tr>
</table>

Is navigate a custom function? Show it's code.

Oh and it'd help if you told us what wasn't working ;)

Ooops :blush:

I got the navigate method out of my Javascript book, but didn't read the bit that says it's an IE specific.

I tried replacing it with "location.href = www.microsoft.com" which again works happily in IE, but won't work in Firefox.

Basically in Firefox neither the cursor changes nor does it treat the table as a link :eek2:

[mendhak]

Use this javascript:

javascript:document.location.href='http://www.mendhak.com/';

And for the cursor, try pointer instead of hand.

Woo hoo....thanks Mendhak that works beautifully :D

Big up to the :afrog: once again
