mozilla and frames problem

[plotzer]

I have a frames based application that is comprised mainly of html and javascript. I do have a tool in the application that loads a jsp page into one of the frames with some query results. This works fine except when I want to reload one of the html pages (using javascript) into that frame. The frame doesnt load and I get the following error:

Error: uncaught exception: Permission denied to call method Location.toString


I only get have this problem in mozilla/firefox. It works fine in explorer.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks

try { succeed(); } catch(E) { tryAgain(); } finally { rtfm(); }

Agree with Jeff - some code would be handy... but a few guesses:

Do you want to use "Location" (capital 'L'), or "location" (lowercase 'l')?

Are you doing any cross-domain stuff that would invoke the built-in security of JS?

Hope this helps,
Dan

The line that causes the error is as follows:

parent.TOCFrame.location.href="toc.htm";

The jsp page that I load into the frame is on the same server, but it is in the tomcat root directory and not in the same directory as the frameset.

Thanks

Aah - try "parent.TOCFrame.src" instead.

Hope this helps,
