Shopsite & Javascript

I'm trying to run some simple Javascript stuff from one of the Shopsite
store pages. Nothing fancy, just a drop-down list, where the selected
option ends up sending a partiular product id to the ordering CGI.

IN short, I can't get ANY Javascript to run from these pages! Not even a
simple redirect link to an info page I've created as a test.

These are little scripts I've used over and over again in the past. Is
there something about how Shopsite operates that prevents JS from running?

Puzzled --- Phil

Pages generated by ShopSite are just HTML pages (except the shopping
cart screens), so I am not sure how the problem could be with ShopSite.
What an example to one of your pages (not that I am that great with
JavaScript, but who knows)?

Have you perhaps disabled Javascript in your browser?

Jim - thanks for your note. I have not had time to track this down, but

the client has changed his mind and now wants a table-style layout
instead of a drop-down list.

Hi, Loren. Thanks for your reply. I haven't had time to get into this,

as the client changed his mind about the style of presentation he
wanted. I don't have to resort to Javascipt for this function.
