Hi all,  
i have a problem, to which i found no solution in the internet.

the javascript statement “document.myfilm. **GetVariable** (”/:wform")" works fine in IE and NS 4.  
however NS6 returns an error “ **GetVariable** is **not** a function”.  
is this a browser-bug? or are there any percularities in a function call for  
NS6?  
thanx in advance
