I have problem calling a JavaScript function in an iframe
from the parent page. Here is my two pages:
mainPage.html
<html>
<head>
<title>MainPage</title>
<script type=text/javascript>
function Reset()
{
if (document.all.resultFrame)
alert(resultFrame found);
else
alert(resultFrame NOT found);
if (typeof (document.all.resultFrame.Reset) == function)
document.all.resultFrame.Reset();
else
alert(resultFrame.Reset NOT found);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
MainPage<br>
<input type=button onclick=Reset() value=Reset><br><br>
<iframe height=100 id=resultFrame src=resultFrame.html></iframe>
</body>
</html>
resultFrame.html
<html>
<head>
<title>ResultPage</title>
<script type=text/javascript>
function Reset()
{
alert(reset (in resultframe));
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
ResultPage
</body>
</html>
(I know that document.all
isn't recommended but this page should only be viewed with IE internally and I don't think that's the problem)
When I press the Reset-button I get resultFrame found and resultFrame.Reset NOT found. It seems to have a reference to the frame but can't call the function on the frame, why is that?
