Nick:

If "readyState" is the non-standard property, what's the equivalent "standard" property?

In other words, how do you do the same thing in other browsers? I want to know when the other browsers are done doing whatever they do so I can send them a command.

This is sounding a bit like ajax, is it along the same lines?

Thanks.
