Quick javascript help

[traz]

I'm a noob. All my coding works for FF, but not for IE. I was wondering if anyone was willing to check my code and help me get it working for IE as well. I can paste here or through pm or aim or whatever.

Any help would be appreciated :P

It's been a while, but go ahead and post it. If I can't figure it out, I'm sure someone else can.

There is a computer tech help forum, you may get a better response there.

Posting it here can't help. I used to be okay at Jscript editing and understand it.

The comp tech forum is usually dead from my experiences. I'll post the coding here. If I get help, then great. If a mod wants to move this, then thats ok too.

Do you have activex access restricted in your IE? It worked fine for me once I allowed it.

[lippy]

Work on both FF and IE on my computer. Check your security settings in IE.

[traz]

ok, so I'm REALLY stupid.

yea my fault, go ahead and lock the thread. Thanks whoever replied and read the thread.

If you're testing javascript in FireFox there is a great FF addon called FireBug that has a great javascript debugger/console.
