Mozilla doesn't support JavaScript click()
A friend mentioned he couldn't trigger a click event via script through the click() method on Mozilla Firefox. It works fine for Internet Explorer (which of course almost everything does... including all the exploits to deliver spyware and virus to your desktop without your knowledge and certainly not consent). Anyway, this seems a work around, albeit a quick and dirty hack.

Here's the code... cut/paste it to test yourself.

<br><a id="test" href="http://www.eshire.net">hobbits rule</a><br><br><script><br>obj = document.getElementById('test')<br>if(obj.click) obj.click()<br>else obj.addEventListener('click',location.href=obj.href,false)<br></script><br>

Links for Andrew. These are some links to projects I've contributed to. My role is usually basic design, HTML/JavaScript, sometimes CGI (PERL), Search Opt, Templating to faciliate scaled production without sacrificing search goals... some game programming (web and other), client-side web gadgetry (color pickers, calendars, etc), ...and a whole bunch of other stuff. Basically all of this stuff roles into our own definition of "web producer", though I'm not sure how universally the term is accepted. Personally, I prefer "technology evangalist", but good luck getting paid with a title like that (never mind the wizard cap, cloak, and, ...er, um ...20-sided die.
