I am basically creating a script to check for the latest version of the script.
The only problem I have is getting the window title after I open an internet 
explorer webpage.
I am thinking the work around is to do this server side coding and give the url 
with the program version, then let the php page check if it is the latest 
version. I just wish the API for internet explorer would allow me to get the 
title of the window or if it is called caption such as
o.title or o.caption
This is not returning the title of the window just opened. Perhaps I need to 
specify the window handle which I can get with
o.hWND
which works fine.
This is all working with the JAWS API functions.

Sorry, John--I'm really really unclear as to what you're trying to do.
Could u explain in very specific terms?
