Hi,

I'm (and I thing a lot of guys are) having problems with
the __doPostBack javascript function. This due to the
installation of .Net 1.1 on my pc containing the .Net 1.0
The project I'm working on it, targets the .Net 1.0 (has
not been migrated to .Net 1.1).

Problem description:
Object expected.
Code:
function __doPostBack(eventTarget, eventArgument) {
var theform;
if (window.navigator.appName.toLowerCase
().indexOf("netscape") > -1) {
theform = document.forms
["Layout:frmLayout"];
}
else {
theform =
document.Layout:frmLayout;
}
theform.__EVENTTARGET.value =
eventTarget.split("$").join(":");
theform.__EVENTARGUMENT.value =
eventArgument;
theform.submit();
}


As you can see the code document.Layout:frmLayout;
is invalid in JavaScript because of the :frmLayout

Hi Miguel,

This is a well-known bug and its already fixed in a patch release by
Microsoft, sorry I dont have the link handy but you should not have much
trouble in finding it, just google for it or search microsoft.com
