I have a similar page with the same thing... a SELECT list of hyperlinks, but when I use the code above, it works in Mozilla and IE6, but not Netscape 4... Unfortunately a large part of our user base still uses NS4, so does anyone happen to have a NS4 compatible solution for this?

Thanks in Advance,
MG
