Hi Mick

I have created the bc.htm and the stayontop.js   I added the the lines to the download2.template and I keep getting this error (see image below)
I followed the tutorial step by step but still the error persists.  Any help you could give me to fix this would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advanced

Just to let you know  got it to work
