Example 15.8:
Calling Functions from Another Frame
Click on the buttons in the far right frame (start at the top button) to modify the frame contents:
This is the script we used:
<![CDATA[
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT">
<!--
function new1() {
parent.frame2.document.open()
parent.frame2.document.write("Here's some more text for you...and some more. Yes, and more, and yet more<BR>")
parent.frame2.document.close()
}
function new2() {
parent.frame3.document.open()
parent.frame3.document.write("Making predictions is very difficult, especially about the future.<BR>")
parent.frame3.document.close()
}
function new3() {
parent.frame4.document.open()
parent.frame4.document.write("Um...what else can I say? Oh, I know, I'll omit the line break and see what happens.")
parent.frame4.document.close()
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
]]>
Then these buttons in the far right frame:
<![CDATA[
<FORM>
<INPUT TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="Change frame2" onclick="parent.frame1.new1()"><BR>
<INPUT TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="Change frame3" onclick="parent.frame1.new2()"><BR>
<INPUT TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="Change frame4" onclick="parent.frame1.new3()"><BR>
</FORM>
]]>
