Thank you

document.frames("thisframe").document.getElementBy Id("work").innerHTML =
"goodbye";

Hmm, tried both and still can't get it to work. I'm yanking my hair out
with this one. Nothing seems to work! Have you tested it out?

Interesting. Why does it error out if you remove test(); from body
onload? Anyway to make it a seperate call function, like <script>
test(); </script> somewhere else?

#8

Thank you -- works perfectly... Have a great weekend!

- frames collection are a property of the window object, not of the
document.
- you can access a single frame within the frames collection with
frames["FrameName"] or with frames.FrameName but not with
frames("IframeId"). You're confused in the correct way to access a frame.
- when accessing a frame, the returned object is a window object, not a
document.
- contentDocument is a property of the iframe object which can return a
reference to the document contained in the iframe. So assuming:

<iframe id="idIframe" ...></iframe>

then you can access such iframed document like this:

document.getElementById("idIframe").contentDocumen t

Thank you

....
<script type="text/javascript">
function PopulateIframe()
{
var IframedDocumentBody = frames["thisframe"].document.body;
var FirstParg = document.createElement("p");
FirstParg.appendChild(document.createTextNode("goo dbye"));
IframedDocumentBody.appendChild(FirstParg);
}
</script>
</head>

<body onload="PopulateIframe();">

Not tested but should work in Mozilla-based browsers.
