Greetings all.
I have made a page that uses an iframe window on the page.
I use this with forms and i target the result to this Iframe. I would love to know how to do this in Netscape.
I tried posting to an Ilayer, but no go.

Anyone done anything like this - i'll take anything that will trigger a solution.

Thanks in advance,
BF
 
Sorry, I can't answer your question but I was wondering if you could answer mine:
Can I control a flash movie in an iframe from outside the iframe? If so, how do I put the 'target frame' and movie name into the javascript/html?
 
I suppose the answer would be yes, I call objects in pages from within iframes, so I suppose you could the same thing.
I'm not sure what syntax you would use to start a movie, but if it was something like this, moviename.start() you could use something like the following

fisrt insert the movie into a frame

<IFRAME name=aFrame width=250 src=&quot;moviename&quot;>
</IFRAME>

then call the movie it using
document.aFrame.moviename.start()
