Thanks for the suggestions.  Unfortunately, time doesn't allow me either
solution.  I will regress back to java alerts for now.

Does anyone know if these browser bugs have been reported to NS & MS?

All except for the input element of a form.  But you can get around this
with creating faux input form (look like they are indeed there but only
represented graphically)... then turning the visibility of the layer with
the "real" form elements on it to true and false as need be.  In the short
term this would be an easy solution to your issue.

George,

this is a very annoying behaviour of the browsers. I would not call
it a DHTML bug, it is a browser bug imho.

As DynAPI has solved so many browser-related problems for us already,
I gues s/one will come up with a set of <form>s related
widgets/classes based on DynAPI. It should not be that hard and would
be a nice extension to DynAPI.

As I am delaing with the same problem, maybe I will bite.

Martin
