I tend to have this problem generally when i use extensive Javascript...

I get an error because the user might mouse over or click somwhere that invokes a function that tries to manipulate an object on the page that has not yet been loaded.

Is there a valid, cross-browser function to check if the object exists.... of if its has been loaded...

NB: I know of using if(document.all["objID"] and if(document.layers("objID"))
but I'm looking to find a cross browser way or any other methods...

I'm open to any suggestions... and i do mean ANY! :thumbsup: :D

:D :p
