JAVASCRIPT & FRAMES

Anyone know of some Javascript(or alternative) that i can use to display the
content of a specific frame within a target frameset?

I want to load x.html into the bottomframe but i also need the frameset to
change too.

Thanks

try something like this:

// See http://www.searchmechanics.com/learn/srf/ for details.
var str = location.search;
var writeFrames = (str.indexOf("nowritefs")) && (top.window.length == 0);

if (writeFrames)
{
// We are in the frameset context - write the framset out
if (str == "")
{
var bodyFrame = window.location + "?nowritefs";
}
else
{
var bodyFrame = window.location + "&nowritefs";
}
document.write(
'<frameset cols="200,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">',
'<frame src="../../navigatie/nav_p4.html" name="navigatie"
scrolling="NO" noresize id="navigatie">',
'<frameset rows="80,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">',
'<frame src="../top.html" name="topframe" scrolling="NO" noresize>',
'<frame marginHeight=0 marginWidth=00 name=textframe src="' + bodyFrame
+ '">',
'</frameset>',
'</frameset>');
}

Thanks a lot!

Couldn't access http://www.searchmechanics.com/learn/srf/ but will try again
later.
Got to do a bit of customising, so could do with the details. It's not
exactly a frameset i'm working with- it's a standard html page with an
ilayer that is displaying the content of another html page. So i actually
want to load 'x.html' into the ilayer of the html page i am linking to.
Should be able to customise the script tho...hopefully...

Thanks again

<ilayer>? Really? Why? You know it's only suported in NN4x, right?

sorry, that site doesn't exist anymore... it is the sit I took the
adapted the code from so that is why it is in the source code. They had
a manual, but unfortunatly I don't have that.

You can see the site were I used the code here:

http://www.montessorischoolapollo.nl/over_de_apolloschool/index.html

All the links point to the central frame were the javascript is used to
display the surrounding frames; you can see the titles of the page and
bookmark each page and the site works in all browsers consistently from
netscape 4.7 and up (javascript has to be turned on, still have to work
on the no-script tags to make it work like a 'normal' frames site when
javascript is turned off)
