On clicking any of the buttons, they do not open up the relevant page in Netscape 7.1

The page works in IE.

Please help!

can u give us a link??

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull
 
Thanks, vbkris. Sorry this is on Intranet, so I cannot give you the link. As you can see, for instance, Sectors button should activate sector.asp (a data-entry form) thru the code
onclick='window.navigate("sector.asp")'.The problem is that sector.asp does not fire. But when sector.asp is directly accessed thru Netscape by typing it displays correctly. The same goes with other pages like vendor.asp, firm.asp etc. So the problem is with the starting page, default.asp, the code for which is in my post. In IE, default.asp works fine. Does this have anything to do with the code?

ur code was too complex, so i thought i could debug it as it is run in IE.
on the face i dont see any errors...

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull
 
I'd tried renaming sector.asp to sector.old. Then after the default.asp page displayed in Netscape, I clicked on Sectors button, expecting some error message, but none came up and the page remained the same, looking as pretty as before. I wonder if this was the same case with you. I was thinking "Is it because of that Language=VBScript thing at the top?", but then, VBScript is supposed to execute on the server before rendering the page in Netscape. I've even checked the page source in Netscape and it seems pretty much HTML to me. This is really bugging me now.

stupid me, should have noticed before, in netscape u have to enclose all fields in a <form> tag. otherwise u may face problems, try that out...

The problem is that window.navigate does not work in Netscape. But the real problem is that Netscape does not work with VBscript. You can only use VBscript in explorer...

One quick correction, window.navigate does work in Netscape but only while using JavaScript...
