The following example works in IE 4 and 5. Our company has standardized on IE so I have not yet tested this with Netscape but it should work there too. This is a a variation on a line out of an active page.: <input type=text name=address size=40 name=address maxlength=40 value=<dtml-var "_.string.strip(address)" null=''> onChange="opener.document.ContactForm.address.value=this.value"> This updates a field in the browser window that opened the window this code is in. Have also used nothing but javascipt in a child window to update fields in a parent window. The child form on load updates all the fields in the window that called it and then closes itself. This is handy when you have a complex data entry form with a lot of javascript functions (money formatting, autocalcs, ...)and a number of large select lists (some with 100 plus items). Using this routine, when you save a change to the form, you don't have to waste pipe space reloading the form, you just update the data. __________________________________________________________________ Jim Sanford .

Hi,
I'm working on the VisualZope project and have run into some problems with javascript. Since it isn't my native language (python is) I was wondering if some javascript wizards are interested in getting their names in the credits.
The problem is: how do I get a form to talk to an object in another frame? ie:
<input value=".." ... onchange="mywidget.setAttribute('property', value-of-inputbox)>
where mywidget is a javascript function defined in another (loaded) frame.
Also, how can I "call" a html page without causing a reload:
function jsZDOMsetAttribute(name, value){ call("getWidget/setAttribute?name=name&value=value") }
For further information on this problem please see http://163.182.196.200/zwiki/VisualZope - jsZDOM reflecter part.
Thanks in advance,
Anthony Pfrunder
