Determine in or not in frame.

[DarkKodiak]

Hi,

I have a site that uses frames. I dont want any of my pages to be orphans. I am trying to write a script that determines if a page is in or not in a frame. So far I am doign this:

if (top.location==self.location)
{
frame this page code goes here.
}

This sort of works, but even when the page is framed the if statement returns true...what am I doing wrong?

return (0 == window.parent.frames.length)

Pete,

Can you please explain? Where do I put the return?

 

[palbano]

function notInFrame(){
  return (0 == window.parent.frames.length) 
}

Then in your script code:

if( notInFrame()){
... do whatever you desire when this page is in a frame
}
