frames and dropdowns.......

[chrisparr21681]

ok i am working in frames (mistake i know), but i need to open the page selected from a dropdown automatically into my frame, the frame also needs to start on a default page so its not blank...

This is the code for the dropdown, how can get the frame to have the selected option?

function formHandler(form)
{
var URL = document.form.site.options[document.form.site.selectedIndex].value;
window.location.href = URL;
}

<form name="form">
<select name="site" size=1 onChange="javascript:formHandler()">
<option value="

http://www.yahoo.com"=

>Getting Started...
<option value="

http://www.google.com">Google

</select>
</form>

I'm assuming the drop-down is in a frame that is a sibling of the target frame (both frames exist within the same frameset)? If so, try changing this:

window.location.href = URL;

to this:

parent.yourTargetFrameName.location.href = URL;
