Heya folks,

	Just ran into an odd bit of coding.  I wrote some Javascript
functions to manipulate options to
a dropdown lists from a text field. i.e. function addOption( listObj, option
)

	There seems to be a problem with Javascript and Sessioning when it
comes to accessing the
document object, because when PHP initially sets the browser cookie for the
session the document
object is unaccessable?

Let me give you an example:
	1. I try my page without "session_start()".  addOption() works fine.
	2. I add the session_start() to the page, addOption() generetes an
"Object expected error",
		when I try to use it. I am guessing it can't access document
object?
		using this format: document.form1.elements[i].  (the form
was named to form1)
	3. I reload the page as is, the addOption() works fine again;
		note: I didn't touch session_start() in the code. 
	4. I delete my cookies, reload the page, and the "Object expected
error" returns.

Seems that document obj disappears only when initially setting the session
cookie? Odd.
Anyone can shed some light on this particular situation?

FYI: Using IE6,  I really hate the way IE handles Javascript Errors, Loved
the way Netscape had
a Javascript console for reviewing/locating errors.

Thanks!
