WRONG!!!!! the browsers doesn't know what script you're running
VB-Script, Arexx, JS etc.
correct is
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
read the books on JavaScript before you begin to blame the Amiga's browser's
this would most likely not work on any other browser either

there is not a singe JS book that will guarante that the JS they have in
their books will run on all the PC's browsers (they simply won't)
