Hi Brian,
I went to that site and searched the HTML source for those Tags. I could
not find any instances of either. Do you need to log in before you will get
a page with embeds?
I am still attempting to get similar JavaScript calls to create collections
for edit boxes and buttons. I have not been completely successful yet.
Apparently, these elements are not as simple as links, which I can traverse
well. Does capitalization of the tag matter? I know HTML standards prefer
all caps, but is not case sensitive. JavaScript seems to prefer all lower
case. My results in my tests are inconclusive yet. Perhaps, because I have
too many variables in the equation (unknown conditions, not script
variables).
