onClick problem

[cactus1000]

I have a link that needs to do the following with one click:

1. open a page in my right frame, and find a named anchor.

2. run some javascript contained in the page.

Ive tried this:

<a href="javascriptarent.right.location='deadlines.html#sir';parent.right.openandclose(0)">

and this:

<a href="deadlines.html#sir" target="right" onClick="javascriptarent.right.openandclose(0)">

However both of these methods require a second click before the javascript executes.

I think the problem with the second method is that the onClick happens before the href navagation. But what's wrong with the first example?

um with the second example you might try an onMouseup and see if that works...just a thought
