As the subject states, I'm having issues with if else statements that
are testing true in IE but false in Mozilla. At first I Thought maybe
the way I was splitting the string was leaving trailing white spaces
in Mozilla, but that was not the case (as the alert in the else
statement shows). So I'm at a complete loss here. The reason for this
script is to make the button mouse overs to remain active on their
respective pages, without having to hard code it on each respective
page. The reason is because the buttons are in an include file (which
is a temp fix until we get the whole site running on a database).
Here is the code (for whatever reason Mozila only runs the alert in
the else statement.):
function PageName() {
var NextPage = new String(location .href);
var ArrNextPage = NextPage.split( "/");
var NextPage2 = new String(ArrNextP age[eval(ArrNextPag e.length -
1)]);
var ArrNextPage2 = NextPage2.split (".");
var NextPage3 = new String(ArrNextP age2[0]);

There are two suspicious things here. First, don't use the String constructor.
This isn't Java. You never have to say
new String(...)
Strangely, the String constructor makes an object, not a string. Get rid of it.
Second, you are using eval(), which is strictly for the tards. Clean it up and
try again. http://www.ecmascript.net/

The standards on which The Web is based are the most faulty and least complied
with of all international technical standards. If you want your stuff to work on
a variety of browsers, you need to restrict yourself to those features which are
best specified and best complied with. jslint is a tool that can help you there: http://www.crockford.com/javascript/lint.html

Nearly all JavaScript books are quite awful. Recommendations on good ones can be

Simplify before posting. Almost certainly. the problem remains with
only two cases; and with alert(number) instead of VV triplets. If it
does not, that's valuable evidence.
For test, show the value of NextPage3 before testing it; it may well not
be what you think it is.
Your function appears to depend only on location.href; that should, for
easier testing, be a parameter.
Your eval() is superfluous. Your new String() are superfluous.
NextPage3 could more briefly be extracted by a RegExp; a RegExp expert
should be here shortly. The following gives 'frequent', and may be
right :
S = "C:/HOMEPAGE/frequent.htm"
S = S.match(/\/([^\/]*)(\..*)/)[1] // .toLowerCase()
The code might be neater using a switch
switch (NextPage3) {
case "massage" : { VV() ; VV() ; VV() }
case ...
...
default : : {...} }
Since the VV triplets are so repetitive, replace each triplet with a
single function call using three parameters, or even one.
Don't call yourself "The Master" until you deserve it; it has an effect
on your readers which you should not be wanting.

Hello,
Guido has decided, in python-dev, that in Py3K the id-based order
comparisons will be dropped. This means that, for example, "{} < "
will raise a TypeError instead of the current behaviour, which is
returning a value which is, really, id({}) < id().
He also said that default equality comparison will continue to be
identity-based. This means that x == y will never raise an exception,
as is the situation is now. Here's his reason:
