Can't get javascript code to work

Its just sarcasm. I would not blame Firefox though, everyone is expected to write sites cross browser. How can Affilinet mess up something as simple as a link.

Copy and paste the url into firefox from the code and it don't work, replace all the & with & and it works.

Grant

Just replaced all the & with & as below but still the form doesn't work, but the link is fine

Code:

<p><script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[
function doit() {
var x = document.getElementById('symtb').value
window.open('http://being.successfultogether.co.uk/click.asp?ref=558809&site=7865&type=text&tnb=1&diurl=http://www.webuyanycar.com/affiliateTracker.aspx?AffiliateID=1007&CreativeID=72&Reg='+x)
}
// ]]></script>
</p>
<p>
<input id="symtb" size="20" type="text" value="SU06NJX" /> <button onclick="doit()">Get Value</button></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://being.successfultogether.co.uk/click.asp?ref=558809&site=7865&type=text&tnb=1&diurl=http://www.webuyanycar.com/affiliateTracker.aspx?AffiliateID=1007&CreativeID=72&Reg=SU06NJX">link</a></p>

I just found this link, do I need to swap the & for %26

Try replacing lines 2,3 and 4 with this, see if it helps:

Code:

function doit() {
var x = document.getElementById('symtb').value
var url="http://being.successfultogether.co.uk/click.asp?ref=558809&site=7865&type=text&tnb=1&diurl=http://www.webuyanycar.com/affiliateTracker.aspx?AffiliateID=1007&CreativeID=72&Reg=" + x;
window.open(encodeURIComponent(url));
