JavaScript web links

[Griff]

Hi

I've got to get performance stats for a website. The links within the web
site aren't normal URLs but JavaScript links, e.g.

<A HREF="javascrip t: if (document.Main. ParentID &&
document.Main.P arentName ) { document.Main.P arentID.value=' ';
document.Main.P arentName.value =''; } if (document.Main. fCatalogID &&
document.Main.f CatalogName ) {document.Main. fCatalogID.valu e='';
document.Main.f CatalogName.val ue='';}SetPageT oShow('Catalog Page');"
TITLE="Click here">An example link</A>

When I'm recording a test using the ACT tool, it brings up the web site and
when I click on the link nothing happens; ACT doesn't appear capable of
following the link.

However, if I'm just looking at the site without recording then it works
fine.

Are there any settings that I need to configure that will enable the ACT to
follow JavaScript links?

Thanks
