Sorry, I'm not sure how. From what I can understand of the description, it

seems like a browser difference. Helen seems to assert it's within the

control, independent of a browsers, but I can't readily test that, and even

if true would require a new rev and re-distribution of a new control -- a

multi-month process.


If you're on deadline, then you might consider reworking the project so it

does what you want in the range of desired browsers. I know that's not a

fun continuance to consider, but it does seem the most sustainable path,

sorry.


Bottom line: The browsers are pretty standardized in how they let

JavaScript control other frames or windows from HTML, but they _definitely_

vary in how they let objects-in-the-page control other frames or windows,

in a variety of different ways.
