Re: Frames Question

Toby, I'm a total kook at JavaScript. If I may impose upon you for a bit more help it would be most kind of you. I'm getting this error: =========== JavaScript Error: http://192.168.0.100/dcris/nav_frame.php, line 14: top.frames.main.forms has no properties. ========== And my nav_frame liiks like this: ========= <html> <head> <title>Nav Frame</title> <body> <form name="infoControls"> <input type="button" value="Submit" onclick="javascript:top.frames.main.forms['lookup'].submit();"> <input type="button" value="Submit" onclick="javascript:top.frames.lFrame.forms['info'].reset();"> </form> </body> </html> ========== I'll bet there's a whole bunch more I need like maybe <script language=javascript> tags with initialization code and such. I'm starting to look at the javascript docs. But if you have time I can use some help. Thanks a bunch. Toby Miller wrote: > Tim, > > It's pretty simple.
