How to make HTML IFrames talk to each other?

Question

How to make HTML IFrames talk to each other? So I have 2 Iframes I know and create thare contents. I need to make tham talk one to other - for example one to send XML data to other or just call JS function from it.

Answer 1

It could be just a starting point, but this site proposes a demo on how to do just that with some ajax.

Answer 2

This method requires each frame to have these functions.

function acceptXml(xml) {
    // Process XML
}

function sendXml(frameName, xml) {
    var frame = window.parent.frames[frameName];
    frame.acceptXml(xml);
}
