asked on

frame menu

In my main file, I open a window menu with Javascript (window.open command). This new window menu contains several links which should load different documents to the "parent" URL. I have tried to refer to the parent document as "parent", or "top", but it won't work. Tell me how can I refer to the caller-parent document from the window opened in Javascript?

You must give eeach frame a name. For example:
<FRAME SRC=main.html NAME=main>

When you want a document to load in main.html, you can use TARGET=main.

FOR EXAMPLE <A HREF=doc1.html TARGET=main>Document 1</A>

This loads doc1.html in the frame where main.html was loaded.
