How can I change the <base> tag url in Netscape ?
<base id="mybase" href="url1">
document.getElementById("mybase").href="url2"
works ok in IE.

Netscape? Sorry... you'll have to more specific. Netscape (as a browser) is no more. Maybe Firefox?

Cheers,
Jeff

Make sure your web page and css validates properly against the doctype you have chosen - before you attempt to debug a problem!

getElementById" does not work in NS 4.7x and earlier. Do not know if it works in NS 4.8x up.

Add in the closing tag and see if that helps some...

Code: 
<html>
<head>
...
<base id="mybase" href="url1"></base>
...
<script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById("mybase").href="url2";
</script>
...

Just a thought.

Cheers,
Jeff
