Netscape v IE

I have a page that runs a java servlet web form. I did all my testing/implementing in IE... now that it it online I realise the servlet is not run when viewed from a Netscape browser!
Is there something I don't know?
I'm using the 'OnLoad' command to call my servlet. This works fine in IE but seems to be where it stalls in Netscape.
Any suggestions gratefull!
cheers

Please post some code to clarify...
What OnLoad command are you using?
Is the servlet called by form submission?
etc. etc. etc...

TIA, Ton

cheers,
but it's all sorted out now.

So what turned out to be the problem?

It was sorted out by completely avoiding the problem in the end.
Originally I needed the 'OnLoad' command for the way the page was run.
In the end I could run the page directly from the servlet (i.e no need to call it from 'OnLoad')
Therefor avoiding the Netscape 'OnLoad' problem.
I've got an ongoing topic at http://www.devshed.com/Talk/Forums/Forum1/HTML/000544.html to see if anyone knows what the problem could have been....

cheers
