Hi, Your code is working fine for me with IE6 (and I'm making sure that the script comes from a different domain; I even had it created by PHP using exactly your code, and did nothing to make sure that the PHP result was being served with the correct content-type, although I'd recommend doing that). I get the alert just fine -- and immediately, not on refresh.
Here's the test page I used, maybe there's some subtle difference that will help you figure out what's going wrong: http://pastie.org/869996 HTH, -- T.J.

So how do I get the contents of the script tag? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype & script.aculo.us" group.
