works locally but not online – Explorer for Mac

I have a flash file with javascript commands. these work fine: buttons call up URLs in new windows. it also works on the old IE for Mac, when I test it on my computer. However, when I upload it to the server, it doesn’t work anymore.

does anybody have an explanation and / or idea what I can do?

thanks

@felgallJan 26.2007 — Does it work in any current browser on your Mac - Safari, Firefox, Opera, or iCab - or does it just work in the officially dead in 2003 Internet Explorer? If you are running OSX then you can run any modern browser, on OS9 you the Opera 6 and iCab browsers are still supported and so you can test with one or both of those.

If you can find out which browsers it does and doesn't work in on your computer then you will have a better idea whether the problem is related to how you have coded it or where you are running it.

@2007boyauthorJan 26.2007 — hi there

it works on all other browsers. I know that IE mac is dead but it is still puzzling and since it shipped with macs for a few years, I'd rather it worked with my files.

in the past, similar javascript / flash websites worked with IE mac (5.2) as well, only this time there is this discrepancy between the browser running locally and online. The javascript is not very complicated neither, it just calls windows to open without any scrolls, location, etc. but maybe i need to add something? this is the simple script:

window.focus();

function openHere() {

hereWindow = window.open("sideone.html", "here", "width=200,height=300,left=380,top=520,location=0,scrollbars=0,menu=0,statusbar=0");

hereWindow.focus();

}

function closeHere() {

hereWindow = window.close("here");

}

as i said, it works on all browsers locally and online, only the old IE mac5.2 works locally only.
