I checked this on win95 and I get an error in the viewer window that states: JavaScript error: document.form.sel.options[-2] has no properties URL: <null>, LineNo: 0 Line text: <null>, Error test: <null> So, I'm not clear if this is a continuation of this propblem or if it is a new problem. Paul -- can you please test this on linux -- thanks
This is (I think) the correct behaviour. There is no element at index -2 in the array, so viewer is indicating that there is a javascript error (which there is). The bug was that before the fix this javascript error would cause the browser would crash. It doesn't anymore.

Well it doesn't crash on Linux 2/3. Marking verified.
