It had become a personal challenge, me against the Universe, but the
Universe won. (Or my patience finally died, anyway.)  <smile>

What I've been trying to do is create a pop-up window (the easy part) that
displays information from an external javascript file. So far, that
in-and-of-itself is not hard to do. BUT, where I ended up lost is that
there are several different javascript files, and I want the one included
in the head of the popup code to be dependent on a variable sent to the
method that creates the window. It *seemed* like a straightforward sort of
thing, and I even got it to work in Internet Explorer! (That was the most
frustrating part) But never would Netscape give me satisfaction. <sigh>

Any ideas?
