I updated to 4.0. I write websites and use frames on one of them. I have a page with two frames. The left frame is use to load pages into the right frame. When I run a php script loaded into the right frame to display a list of database entries (member names), select one of the members, then "update" link another script into the right frame with information relevant to the member's name. When done, there is a link which takes it back to the original page in the right frame where the database member name list is but it is still showing the one I just had and not "choose" member making it seem like the page was not reloaded. When I select another member, the resulting page of member information, contains information from the previous member and some from the new member. This problem only seems to affect the <select and="" <option="" tags.="" when="" i="" run="" these="" scripts="" as="" regular="" "tabs"="" this="" problem="" doesn't="" happen.="" does="" not="" exist="" in="" the="" 3="" other="" browser="" test="" website="" design="" on.="" also="" want="" to="" "view="" frame="" source"="" it="" always="" shows="" me="" content="" of="" first="" page="" loaded="" right="" frame,="" one="" that="" i'm="" viewing.="" addition,="" some="" web="" pages="" load="" consistently="" come="" up="" blank.="" highlight="" url="" line="" hit="" enter,="" comes="" immediately.="" do="" have="" with="" browsers.="" also,="" get="" too="" many="" 404="" timeouts.="" don't="" them="" on="" browsers="" (ie,="" safari,="" chrome).="" think="" had="" flrefox="" version="" 3.x.x.="" any="" help="" would="" be="" greatly="" appreciated.="" <="" p=""></select>

This problem only seems to affect the <select and <option tags. When I run these scripts as regular "tabs" this problem doesn't happen. This problem does not exist in the 3 other browser I test the website design on. Also when I want to "view frame source" it always shows me the content of the first page loaded in the right frame, not the one that I'm viewing. In addition, some web pages I load consistently come up blank. When I highlight the URL line and hit enter, the pages comes up immediately. I do not have this problem with other browsers. Also, I get too many 404 timeouts. I don't get them on the other browsers (IE, Safari, Chrome). I don't think I had these problem on Flrefox version 3.x.x. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
