Hi
I have a problem with a piece of javascript. i am working on a
workaround for non ajax compatible browser like ie 5/6 without activeX
and opera8-
I use dynamically created iframes and forms to make a request, a simple
version for you to understand:
How you see a form and iframe are created on load, then the function
"request" is started when you click somewhere in the body.
- If the iframe is dynamically created - this case - ie 5 opens a popup
with the content of the iframe and ie 6 shows an error. All the other
browsers behave normally.
- If I don't create it by function but simply include it in source
code, it works in ie too
I don't understand it but it's a bug, the only work to workaround this
is to use GET as request method.
Does somebody know this problem?
Thanks,
Andi

f.action='...';
f.submit();
}
