    how to trigger a .js from script?

    I use a web page that brings up a table with a series of links that look
    like this...

    <a href="javascrip t:GetAgent('MA1 42')">

    these links open pages that look like this...
    http://info.webpage.com/Roster/Scripts/Member.asp?PubID=MA142


    I'd like to use a script to sequentially trigger each link to open the pages
    one at a time so I can get the info from the pages that open with the links.

    Can someone help by showing some example code as to how to either trigger
    the GetAgent script or to send the full URL... I'm a pretty lousy scripter.

    I appreciate the help!

      If the pages you are manipulating are *not* on your own site, then
      you will need to do some extra work to bypass the cross-domian
      security features, but none the less , the notes below might help

      Use an <iframe name="IFviewpag es" onload="doSomet hing()"
      src="blank.html "></iframe>

      Each time a page loads in the iframe, your function would get called.

      in that function you can obtain the links
      self.oIFviewpag es=self.documen t.getElementByI d("IFviewpages" )
      self.aLinks=sel f.oIFviewpages. contentWindow.d ocument.getElem entsByTagName(" A")

      you can iterate through these and run them into a second iframe
      setup like the first with it's own onload funtion to parse the page ,
      then trigger the next link in the array

      There is also XMLHTTP , which could be more usefull in retrieveing
      the page contents.
