ok, here is the faulty if statment:
if (confirm("Create a clock for " + inName + "?"
) {
//clockProb = window.prompt("What is wrong with this clock?", "It's broken"
//clockIdea = window.prompt("Enter some ideas to fix the problem", "Beat it with a hammer"
//document.cookie=inName + "clockProb=" + clockProb + ";expires=" + expireDate.toGMTString();
//document.cookie=inName + "clockIdea=" + clockIdea + ";expires=" + expireDate.toGMTString();
//document.cookie=inName + "clockName=" + inName + ";expires=" + expireDate.toGMTString();
//document.cookie=inName + "=clock2;expires=" + expireDate.toGMTString();
//alert("the clock for " + inName + " has been created"
//window.location = "javascript:history.go(0)";
}
if i go down and comment the lines, there is a permission denied error on all of them, except the if (confirm)...and the closing brace...there is even permission denied on the window.location...what does this error mean? -Greg :-Q

I can't see any reason for this error given the script you've posted. (Just pasted it into an empty HTML page and worked fine)
Are you using frames or opening new windows?

ok...the plot thickens...if i take out the 2 prompts and the cookies, i get an object expected on the alert that says the clock has been created...even with out the variable (like it was trying to call a function called alert() and pass the string in)...if i write it as window.alert, then i get a permission denied error...it's almost like it just decided to stop using anything dealing with the document and window objects in that if statement -Greg :-Q
