To reference another frame, you simply need to step through the
frame hierarchy: `` parent '' is the page the frame is defined
in, `` parent.framename '' is another frame in the same frameset.
To access a variable called Moomin in a frame called Snork you
would use `` parent.Snork.Moomin ''. To call the function Snufkin
in that frame you would use `` parent.Snork.Snufkin() ''....
Is there a method for breaking out of frames that's truly cross-browser compatible?
I've seen a ton of examples on how to do this, but I'm not sure which method works the best.
if there was a script to disable only the horizontal scroll bar in a browser window on a site with frames?

View 4 Replies View RelatedHow can I use XMLHttpRequest communicate from webpage to another? Currently I have a left/right frames, when the submit button pressed (item is added to the database), the left frame should automatically retrieve this item and display it on the page.
I thought of using Ajax (XMLHttpRequest object), but not sure how to use XMLHttpRequest object in two different webpages.
I have a Flash movie on a web page and I want to send parameters to it with JavaScript to have it go to a selected frame. The AS3 code receives its information via an ExternalInterface API. The following code parses the URL argument (?page=x) and I want to send the value (x) to Flash. Unfortunately, when creating the objMovie variable, it is always undefined, therefore getFlashMovie is undefined and Flash never receives the callback. Thinking that it was because the flash movie is not loaded yet, I created a button to call callToActionscript, and when I click the button, I get the same error.
(getFlashMovie("myFlashMovie") is undefined)
Also,
if (params)
always returns true, whether there are parameters or not. I don't understand that, either.
The code follows:
<script >
$(document).ready(function() {
var params=getQueryParameters();
if(params) {
callToActionscript(params[0]);
}});
function getFlashMovie(movieName) {
var isIE = navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft") != -1;
var objMovie = (isIE) ? window[movieName] : document[movieName];
alert(objMovie); //Always return undefined
return objMovie;
} function callToActionscript(page) {
var myMovie=getFlashMovie("myFlashMovie").sentToActionscript(page);
} function getQueryParameters() {
var query = window.location.href.split('?')[1];
//query won't be set if ? isn't in the URL
if(!query) {
return { };
} else{
var param = query.split('=');
} return param[1];
}
</script>
I'm trying to access a child iframe from my parent page. Is it possible? I've googled this extensively ut have found only scripts that allow me to communicate from the child iframe to the parent iframe. I want to do it the other way round. I need to be able to get in to the child frame and access it's DOM.

This is my code.
<?php
Javascript Form validiation:
I have a web site. The user input is a record id. When the form is submitted, the cgi code will check if the id is in the data base, if its in the database, it will be processed, and results being displayed. If the id is not in the database, I need to pop up a window telling the user the next available id, and when the user closes the popup window, the browser should go back to the first form submit page, with the next available id in the input box.
Right now, I can pop up an alert window telling the next available id, but have no idea how to go back to the submit page when I close the alert window.
As a rule, I don't like frames but I'm stuck supporting a web that uses
them. I have a page, default.asp, that has a header and body frame: "fHead"
and "fBody". What I want to do is to prevent default.asp from ever loading
itself into "fBody". Some users still have code that causes this behavior.
So how, using javascript , can I do something to the effect of: "If
default.asp tries to load default.asp (itself) into fBody, then reload the
top-level browser window with what fBody is trying to load."
Make sense? Any thoughts?
my main page consists of frames.
i'm using ssi to include copyright info, tos, and a privacy statement at the bottom of each page.
the ssi is working on all regular (ie non-frame) pages, but it doesn't seem to be called or parsed on the main page.
a look at the source shows the ssi call just sitting there, doing nothing.
has anyone dealt with this before?
i didn't think it mattered if an ssi was called from within a framed page, but i might be wrong.
i suppose i can just use the actual html for that one page but i'd rather just be able to use ssi since it's used through out the rest of the site.
I have a frameset with two frames, and want to have a button in one
frame call print() in the other one:
This is the layout:
<frameset rows="*,40" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="..." name="pritableText">
<frame src="..." name="printButton" scrolling="NO" noresize>
</frameset>
And, in printButton, I got this code:
<a href="#" onClick="parent.printableText.focus();
parent.printableText.print();">Print the page</a>
However, nothing happens in Netscape (7.01) and Firefox (0.8), and in IE (6)
I get an "error in the script". However, I do not identify the error.
Does anyone have a clue onto what's happening?
Let me just start by saying... and I truly do mean this... I HATE frames. Now that I have that out of my system, unfortnualty I do not have a choice and am forced to use the complex structure that I am so SO needing help with. My framesets look like this
---------------------
| title |
|--------------------
| buttons |
|--------------------
| base |
|--------------------
inside the base frame I have ANOTHER frameset... split into frmLeft and frmRight... now if your mind isnt tied into knots... I am sure this will do it... I have a button called 'add category', which is on the buttons frame. When I click the button, I get a popup with the details... I add the category details... then I need the frame titled frmLeft to refresh. Is this possible?
What's the trick to sharing cookies between frames? I can set and read a
cookie in the same frame, but if I try to read the cookie in another frame
it is undefined. :o(
There are some other cookies that are available in all frames, so I know
that the frames are capable of reading cookies, just not the ones that I set
in the other frame.
I believe that different browsers treat frames/iframes differently, and this
is one of the reasons to avoid using them in websites/applications.
Are there any other reasons to avoid them?
In my experience I find them clunky and messy to implement using javascript
and prefer to keep the whole web page as a single page.
I have to iframes within one page. When I triger action in one frame, I
need to update the content's of other frame's selection list.
How to access second frame's form element from my first frame in index
page?
Suppose I named my second frame "content", and form element is named
simply "form1". If I try to access that form by refering:
parent.content.document.form1, I get nothing at all.
I apologize if this is not the right group for this, but I saw some
other messages on this topic in here, so thought I'd take a shot in the
dark...
I am running IE 6, XP, SP2. When I connect to certain sites that use
inline frames, I get the message 'Your browser does not support inline
frames or is currently configured not to display inline frames.'
The aggravating thing is I recently bought multiple Dell computers,
have 2 in the room with me right now, haven't touched a thing
browser-wise on either, and it works fine on 1 and not the other. Same
OS, same IE version, etc.
How can I refresh a page in a separate frame. For example, when someone logs in in the main frmae, I want to refresh another frame to display info differently.

FRAME 2 has no height, so it looks as if you only have 1 frame. I am
using FRAME 2 to retrieve data from my server.
I open up FRAME 1 with my webpage and leave FRAME 2 empty. When the
user request data I target FRAME 2 and the data is loaded into FRAME 2.
What I have been trying to do is this. Take the innerHTML of the FRAME
2's table and load it into a table in FRAME 1.
I am using frames - yes frames - I do not know how to do anything but and I

I am trying to set a frame so that it automatically puts a page
corresponding to the month in that frame (a calendar) Code:
how do I create a print button that is on my index page that prints my
target page (and only the target page)
I tried
<INPUT onclick=window.print(); type=button value="Print This Page"
style="font-size: 10px; float:right">
But it prints the index page.
I have a script for printing the contents of a frame.
It works fine but I would like it not only to print the designated frame
but to add a header or message at the top or bottom.
i'm trying to use javascript to change the content of a textbox in a
different frame.
by clicking on a 'folder' link in 'leftFrame' i want to put the value

onClick="parent.mainFrame.uploadForm.folderName.value='fold er'"
this works perfectly fine with IE and Safari on my Mac OS X machine
and IE 6 on my PC laptop but anything Mozilla-based on either machine
gives me an error i just can't seem to get round...
'parent.mainFrame.uploadForm has no properties'
Suppose I have a page, call in parent.html . Inside, there is an iframe,
call it child.html . I want it so that in response to a keyboard event
in either parent or child, child.html will respond in a particular way.
Do I need to use a different set of code for each html page, or can I
reuse the same code?
If the code is different, what are the fundamental differences in code?
How do I make one frame respond to events in a different frame as a
general rule?
