See this part:

newim.document.write('<a href="/?action=im"> You have a new instant message! </A>')

Replace it with this:

newim.document.write('<a href="/?action=pm"> Check the Owl Post for new letters </A>')

What browser are you using?

[acandelaria]

internet

[acandelaria]

explorer

[acandelaria]

i tried, it won't work

[acandelaria]

let me try again

[acandelaria]

nothin

[Craig]

That part of the code changes it for mozilla and netscape. To be honest, that code is old now, and you have a built in code, i would just use that, unless you desperately want to use that?

[acandelaria]

i desperetly want to use this!

[acandelaria]

[acandelaria]
