javascript location

[richy]

I'm using the following to change the location of my frame, but it only works if I put an alert box in afterwards.

Works
--------
parent.mainFrame.document.location="http://www.teamtalk.com";
alert("hello");

Doesn't Work
-----------------
parent.mainFrame.document.location="http://www.teamtalk.com";


I assume it's because it needs a doevents of some kind. I've put in a parent.mainFrame.Refresh, which doesn't work without the alert box either.

you don't need "Document" in there:

parent.mainFrame.location="http://www.teamtalk.com"

i've just taken the document out, and it still doesn't work. any more ideas?

[Mark Sreeves]

well that's really wierd!
because that works fine for me in IE and NS

[richy]

can i send my file to your email address, and see if it works?

[Mark Sreeves]

OK but i'm off home in 5 minutes!

what's your email address, because the email option on the profile isn't allowed.
