OK, just did another test... and I think you're right about 'title'
being a reserved name in IE.
I updated script by adding a button next to the url field, and when
clicked, gets the value from the title, makes it SEO-friendly, and then
places it in the url field.
The script works if I pull the value from another field (such as "tags")
but not from the input with the id of "title".
I will choose a different name for this input field. Thanks for the tip!
