[Javascript] Question regarding Netscape

[christ at saeweb.com (Chris Tifer)]

I believe onLoad will work, but I'm not quite sure what
"multiframe ultra-humongous items" are. How could anything
be multiframe?  Maybe I'm not thinking enough because it's
close to 5, but I just don't see what you're getting at.
