navigate() (Method)

Load a new URL into the window.

Availability:

JScript - 1.0

Internet Explorer - 3.02

Property/method value type: undefined

JavaScript syntax: IE myWindow.navigate(aURL)

IE navigate(aURL)

Argument list: aURL A new location to navigate the window to

Warnings:

This is variously referred to as a navigate() method and a Navigate() method. Note the different capitalization.
According to some (but not all) Microsoft documentation on this, it is also a shortcut to the navigateFrame() method. However, this is at variance with the coverage under DHTML which does not mention navigateFrame() at all.
