finding ticked checkboxes and updating the database from another frame

[allinoneprogrammer]

Hi

The checkboxes are in one frame. The button is on another frame.

The layout of the web page looks like this

_______________________________________
Frame
_______________________________________________

[] Checkboxes bound to array .... more than one

Frame
_______________________________________________
Button Frame
_______________________________________________


I have a list of vb checkoxes that are bound to vb table.

At the moment I have a button in the same frame as the checkboxes which finds the ticked checkboxes and updates the database.

I want to be able to update the checkboxes by having the submit button in a separate frame.

Thats what it uses to find the ticked checkboxes: Page.FindControl("Form1").FindControl("tblPubl").F indControl(tickSel.ID)

How can I do the same but using another frame to find the ticked boxes.

Can anyone help me please. It would be appreciated.

you need to tell it the frame name.
Something like:
window.top.frames[1].document.getElementByID("Label1").innerText = window.top.frames[0].document.getElementByID("Textbox1").value

Example only. Try googling "getting checkbox value from framed page".

The solution for my problem I found out.
I wanted to click a submit button which was in another frame.
So I hide that button using style="visibility:none;" on the button attribute.

On the frame that I called the submit button when I clicked on another button I put this javascript.

onclick="parent.frames[1].document.getElementByID('BtnSubmit').click();"

Thanks
