I cannot get a new doc. to load using the location object and any of its properties in IE5.0(SP1).

I don't know what you tried, but this little piece of code should work:
function newPage(URLofPage)
{
    var newUrl = URLofPage;
    if(!newUrl.length = 0) window.location.href = "" + newUrl;
}
HTH,

Thanks Jean,
The problem I was having was with this piece of code - 
<a href="#" onclick="location.href='/test'">Next</a> so I changed it to 
<a href="javascript:location.href='/test/'>Next</a> and it worked. I'm 
not sure why an onclick would not work for the location object in IE 
5.0. If you have any ideas I would appreciate it, so I could satisfy my 
curiosity.
