Is this a Scripting Problem?



This is an example of what often happens when I try and negotiate certain
websites. For instance, Im on:
http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productlisting.aspx?c=us&l=en&cs=04&category_id=211&first=true
where Im looking at a listing of lcd monitors. At the bottom of the list, I
have some choices, such as the number of 'Results per page' I want
displayed, on the left, and on the right, I have a choice of page numbers,
ie, '1, 2', or 'next'. When I mouse over any of these, Ill see, on the
window status bar, something like,
"javascript:ChangeFormValue('result','spagenum','2')" for the page 2 choice,
etc. When I then Click on it, the status bar changes to 'DONE', and yet,
NOTHING happens! NO errors, no nothing.. Just the status of Done, as if the
script performed flawlessly. And yet, its clear that the script did not
execute, as nothing on the screen has changed.

I made sure that the security setting has javascript enabled. I have my
general security set at 'Medium'. Does anybody know whats going on here?
BTW, its not just this site.. Ive found several other sites where, if
javascript is used for mouse selections, the behavior is the same. It might
be all of them.. I just dont know. But whatever.. its happening ALOT.

thanks.

ps.. running Windows ME.
