David, That code appears like it should work (in either browser) with one correction:
the inArray check should be < 0 not <= 0 so that the first date entry is not excluded. It actually returns -1 if not found so you could also do == -1 Not knowing what you are using to convert your variable, I would want to rule that out first. I put your code up on jsbin, commented out the dynamic variables you have and just hardcoded a few dates in. It worked in IE (I only had IE6 available) and FF. http://jsbin.com/oqeze/edit Maybe there is a trailing pipe sign or something else messing with the array. You could alert the variable to inspect it in IE. alert (strHolList); Hth, Dave On Oct 27, 9:57 am, David <dapul...@gmail.com> wrote: > I have ran into a bit of a sticky situation here.
