--> Browser-General


This might be an issue with the site's Javascript, there's an error in the JS
console: "document.divLogin has no properties". Someone who knows JavaScript
better than me should probably take a look at the following code: 


The html code:

<div id="divLogin" ... >
<table ... >
<form method="POST" name="fLogin" action="Login.jsp" >
<input type="hidden" name="hdnAction" value="">

And the in the JS file https://www.paygo-rogers.com/spe/JavaScript/LoginUI.js:


function setFormAction_Submit(path, targetframe, haction) 
{
	var form;
	
	if(document.all) //IE
		form = fLogin;
	else //netscape
		form = document.divLogin.document.fLogin;
	form.action = path;
	form.target = targetframe;
	form.hdnAction.value = haction;
	form.submit();
}



Tech evang?

Stefan is right. document.divlogin is not valid. I'm not a DOM expert but these
are a few ways to access fLogin: document.forms.fLogin , document.fLogin,
document.forms[0]  (If it is the first form).
