Hello, I was experimenting with the "onLoad" frameset event handler
and noticed that on Mac IE 5.2 for OS X, when you click 'Refresh', the
handler does not get invoked. Thus, on Mac IE 5.2 for OS X, the
following page

<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>

<frameset rows="50%,50%" onLoad="alert('loaded');">
<frame name="top" src="../dist_info/">
<frame name="bottom" src="../summary">
</frameset>

</html>

only displays "loaded" once no matter how many times you click
'Refresh'. Does anyone know a work-around such that I can invoke this
function whenever the page is reloaded?

Thanks, - Dave

You could try moving the alert into a seperate script block:

<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>

<frameset rows="50%,50%">
<frame name="top" src="../dist_info/">
<frame name="bottom" src="../summary">
</frameset>

<script language="JavaScript">
alert('loaded');
</script>

</html>
