parent.frames[2].document.all

i am trying to target a select box that is on another frame.... I cannot figure out what frame it is on though... is there a logic to the # in this statement?
parent.frames[#].document.all.
thanks
michael

Top to bottom, left to right.

[0][1]
[2][3]

or

[  0  ]
[1][2]

like that. And you can always reference the frame by name, I think. ie...parent.frames.fraMain.document.all...

:)

I thought it started with 0

oh, and don't forget that the frames array starts at 0.

:rolleyes:

ok... now I have a wierd one... I have a page with two framesets:

----------------------
l..........................l
l.......................... l
----------------------
l..... l............ l........ l
l..... l............ l........ l
l..... l............ l........ l
----------------------
l.......................... l
l.......................... l
----------------------

the first frameset has the 3 rows
the middle row is a framset with 3 columns

in the top row, [0] i assume, I have the select mentioned earlier
and in the middle column in the middle row I have the inputs I am targeting.

my guess is that they are #'ed like this
0
1 345
2

how will I get this one?

If you know the names of the frames then it is possible to access the objects like this :

top.framename.formname.objectname.....
