Running JavaScript on IE6.0

[Yaw]

Hi,

I am developing a payroll application in JavaScript but
occasionally I have to click the Refresh button in order
to retrieve data from MYSQL database.

Is there any way of activating the refresh button anytime
a hyperlink or button is clicked? Thanks,

Yaw

I don't see what this has to do with IE6, but...
You should rethink your application design. Client-side scripting is a nice
*addition* (e.g., use the onChange event to provide instantaneous user
feedback and/or validation, w/o requiring the user to hit the Submit button,
or causing a round-trip to the server). But depending exclusively upon ANY
client-side scripting solution is a bad idea, as they are easily circumvented
and manipulated. For a payroll application...feeding a database no less...it
is unthinkable! Look into using PHP, Perl, or ASP (in that order of
preference).

To your original point...

Will <a href="#" target="_self"> do what you want?
