First up, Hello to all. I'm a new member and new to JS. I know a bit of AS and it's amazing how similar it is to JS. So I hope to be hanging around these forums from now on.

Anyways here's the problem I'm having.

I've written some JS to communicate with Flash using the new External Interface in Flash 8. If you're not familar with that it doesn't matter because that's not where the issue is.

Basically I'm using setInterval to watch the pages URL, and if/when the url changes, the page changes it's layout (using JS and CSS).

So it's all working great and I've fallen in love with JS. HOWEVER...while the back and forward buttons seems to work beautifully in Firefox, i'm not getting the same joy with IE6. I did some testing and found that even though the URL is changing IE6 won't read the change on the fly.

here's a link to the test page:

any ideas?
