javascript: get access to objects in different frame?

Question

if I have 2 frames of a frameset on 1 page, is there a way for JS to access elements from the opposite frame?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Yes, but only if pages on both frames is on the same domain. You can do document.getElementById( "frame_id").contentWindow.document... But still if pages are on different domain you will get an exception.

Answer 2

You do it like this parent.framename.attributes_to_change
