executing functions in parent window from IFRAME

[wcclark4]

This should be simple, I know...

From an IFRAME I need to execute a function which lives in the parent HTML. In Netscape I can do parent.fname() and it works. IE doesn't like it. top doesn't work either.

thanks

It should work in IE. I got it work in IE 5.5 using:

<script>function test(){alert('Hi')}</script>
<iframe src=&quot;about:<input type=button onclick=parent.test() value='Click Me'>&quot;></iframe>
