javscript document.getElementById in other frames

Question

so, I have 2 frames and want to access to element from one frame into another :

frame 1:

<div id='someId'>...</div>

frame 2:

var div=document.getElementById('someId');

div.innerHTML='something';

this is somehow not functioning in Firefox so I want to be sure, can I access to element in another frame by its ID ?

Answer 1

You can refer the other frame by using

window.frames["framename"]

and then you can refer the element in the DOM by using

window.frames["framename"].document.getElementById ( "yourelementid" );
