Regarding the call to FireEvent:
I still do not understand why you could call fireEvent('onchange')
and now it you have to call "FireEvent('onchange')" to avoid the
Access denied message
In Ruby or Perl you still call "fireEvent('onchange')" it has not
changed and you do not get the access denied error.
If anyone has any helpful information regarding this it would be great.
