Orginally it was a form submission with an onsubmit that ran the function. But in trying to trouble shoot it I thought the mac was submitting the form differently than the PC versions (maybe the DOM) so I created a button with an onclick command. Again it works for the PC but not for the MAC.
I am at my wits end. If someone can help; below is the code I am using. Including the simple form.
