Sorry, I'm not. The problem is that IE and NS now do different things with
the getYear() function, as I said. I never said that either of them didn't
support it, they just implement it in different ways. This is why the
getFullYear() function was introduced but it is for JS 1.3 capable browsers
only.

I also have Dreamweaver but there is no need for such a complicated script,
a single line added to the script makes it work.
