Jeff, thanks for writing--I didn't notice your post until today.
The problem is the URL. I want to send a LOT of data to the CGI. I receive
back a very small page. I was advised to abandon LoadPanel and try to send
the results to a Frame, but I can not get the frame's onLoad event to
trigger my JavaScript function.
If you have any ideas on this, I would be grateful.
Hershel
