Frames

[Srividya Shiv]

I have a mainpage in which i have some form elements and a submit button.On click of the button, I want to open a new window that has 2 frames. The url for the 1st frame is known, but url for 2nd depends on form input. Can someone tell me how to set the url for the 2nd frame once the window is open.
I tried this with onClick event , but doesnt help.
function setSource(newSource){
myRemote=window.open('test.html','reportWindow');
myRemote.location.href = test.html;
myRemote.frames[1].location.href=newSource;
}
Thanks

Hi Srividya,
I have changed your function just a little. Does this work for you?

function setSource(newSource){
myRemote=window.open('test.html','reportWindow');
// don't need this line, as location is set when the window opens
// myRemote.location.href = test.html;
myRemote.frames[1].document.location.href=newSource;
}

Alternately, you could save the "newSource" as a JavaScript variable and have the new window request it from the opener.

No luck. I am getting a javascript error that myRemote.frames[1].location.href is null.
Any help please?
