Thanks for the quick reply Mike. You confirm that I'm completely nuts. I stripped out all the other code and found that it does indeed work in IE6.
It appears that I have some issues with other code involved with the function I am running, issues that do not appear in FF, but crop of in IE. Thanks again for a quick reply and I'll try and remember to test a little harder before presenting my idiocies :) BTW Your Taconite plugin makes me very happy.
