I was unaware that you could press F12 in IE9 and change the browser mode. After doing this, I used breakpoints and realized it wasn't not getting to the javascript but that a javascript substr method was returning different results in IE8 and IE9. So the OnClientItemSelected was working and it was failing in my method call.
The use of F12 in IE to debug was big here as was the use of the "substring" (instead of "substr").
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
