Help Guys and Gals,

Why does this work in every browser except IE? This works fine on all Linux Browsers (i.e. Modzilla, Netscape, etc). In Window it also works fine with Netscape(7). But does not work with the IE (6). The stupid thing never displays the START button. Why is this not working???

Do you recommend I do something different?

Come on Gurus talk to me.



thanks,
Vincent

I dont see why it wouldnt work, are you sure there isnt a conflict with your user stylesheet?

Hi CG9COM,

I am not sure how to answer your question. I am but a novice. I have just tried a 3rd party MS support line (3.50 francs) per minutes. Ouch!! BTW, before you patriots flip out, these are Swiss francs not French francs.

Still no joy.

The cant see why this is not working.

I really dont know how to ask the good question. That is what I am working on.

All I know is it works on many Browsers, but not IE.

****!!!

I am almost out of hair...

Sincere regards,
Vincent

It works fine for me. All I can think of is to simplify it by just starting with a button and adding things on from there to see if you can find out what component breaks your button.

Start like this and just keep adding your html and script back in.

<html>
<body>
<input type="button" value="Start">
</body>
</html>

Hello ARNYINC,

That was a good idead.

I tried removing this bit of code and hoped that the problem would still be there. But, upon removing this code the button appeared and everything was fine.

So, as I supspected there is something wrong here:

<SCRIPT type="text/javascript"
src="URL REMOVED"
</script>

But, it is OK with Modzilla, Netscape, etc...

Only it doesnt work with MS IE.

I have been struggling mightily. I have removed the language attribute from the script tag and now use the type attr. , because I have learned that the language tag is "deprecated". I have found out that without the leading slash in front of ExamCabinet the problem also occured in Netscape. I have been trying my *** off, but I am only spinning my wheels.

I really feel like a man who has reached the edge of a cliff, only to turn around and see a grizzly bear.

Okay, I got an object expected error when I tried the first HTML you posted. What is this supposed to do?

What really confuses me is when I visit your .js file, I get a paypal looking page?

What's going on here?

This makes me suspicious; your script either remotely-calls or replicates PayPal's front page, and appears to have the ability to pre-process FORM data to PayPal's web accept. That's suspect enough for me to close this thread.

vincentms - I'll give you the benefit of the doubt here, which is why I'm not deleting the thread. Please PM me if you can explain away my concerns, and I'll re-open it.
