    Javascript Hyperlink Function is Called Twice

    I am using <a href="javascrip t:someFunction( 'someValue','so meValue2')"> Click here </a>

    But when i clicked on it, it actually call the "someFuncti on" function twice.
    This only happen to Mozilla Browser. IE only called once.

    Kindly advise what is wrong with this method?
    10,000 Thank you!!

    Regard,
    Jason

          Hi Ramanan,

          Thanks for your prompt reply!

          I tried both v2 and v3 of mozilla browser and both the same.
          I had google-ing about this problem and realised that it happened to others too.

          Sorry, I am still new in web application deverlopment.
          Hope to hear from you again soon!
          Thank you.

          Regards

              Post the code for someFunction. As a general rule, you should put JavaScript in onclick and put a real URL in the href attribute.

                  Hi Acoder,

                  Thanks for the help, i am a very new developer for my current company.
                  Thus, i don't have the right to review any of my company's codes to anyone.
                  I am very sorry for that... however, with the help of my senior developer, we found out that the problem is not lie in the javascript but the <frame> tag.
                  It called itself again when we have something like <frame src="">.
                  We have tried to put <frame src="#"> or <frame src="dummy.htm" > but none of the solution works. We will try again with other methods.
                  Thanks again for everyone who have help up. :)

                  Regards,
                  Jason

                      What does someFunction() do? Can you not just post the relevant part of the code?
