// a couple of bugs have been squashed.
// I would advise you to refer to the original program

//
// Change History
//
// 27-Oct-1999 :: added support for frames -mg
// 08-Oct-1999 :: comments added, updated docs - abk
// 05-Oct-1999 :: ref() & relate() renamed, respectively, relate() & update()
// for consistency w/ their respective behaviors - mg
// 04-Oct-1999 :: ref() is all you need (the icing on the cake ;)
// relate() don't rely on get() anymore.
// The current form index is fetched only once
// See onChange handlers in HTML - mg
// 30-Sep-1999 :: printItems() mod so won't stumble on null 1st lvl items - mg
// 29-Sep-1999 :: Added more comments - removed ie5 fix - abk
// 16-Sep-1999 :: relate() changed to be live with end branch
// 14-Sep-1999 :: ref() code rewritten from scratch. Tx Andy!
// 13-Sep-1999 :: New sindex() call checks for unselected parent menu option
// 09-Sep-1999 :: Technique extended to allow 2,3 or more levels with only
// one relate() function (a feature requested by Andy ;)
// 20-Jul-1999 :: IE4+ bug fix (Thanks Peter!)
// 23-Apr-1999 :: Use an entirely different method for menu setup
// Array name isn't hardcoded in the relate() function,
// so several URPMs can be embedded in the same page
// Fixed a couple of bugs
