Thanks Alan and Simon. I must admit, I've been avoiding Javascript, but if this is the best way of doing it, then so be it. Will the URL intervene in just presenting a URL to the browser? One of the 'cheats' was just putting the cursor within the URL bar and then pressing enter. Does Javascript pick this up as well?
