Multiple redirects

[WARlrus]

Hi
I am running a site with a log-in system

When the user logs in (in "mainContentFrame"), i want the frame "leftFrame" to refresh and the frame "mainContentFrame" to refresh as well.

Is there any way of doing this in javascript?

Yes... give this a go - to be run after login:

parent.frames['leftFrame'].location.reload(true);
window.location.reload(true);

Hope this helps,
Dan

You can always consider targetting the frameset itself. But quit clowning around with frames unless you really need them... surely theres a way to perfeorm your login without relying on Javascript?!

Sorry Dan, that didn't work.

I've decided I'll just do it by asking the user to refresh the site.

Thanks for the help

Do bear in mind the code that I gave you was guesswork, as I had no information about the relationship between the two frames to go on.

Perhaps if you post your frameset code, that might help.

The frameset is:
<frameset rows="*" cols="195,*" framespacing="0" frameborder="YES" border="1" bordercolor="#FF9900">
<frame src="navigation.php" name="leftFrame" scrolling="AUTO" noresize>
<frameset rows="*" cols="*,202" framespacing="0" frameborder="YES" border="1" bordercolor="#FF9900">
<frameset rows="79,*" cols="*" framespacing="0" frameborder="YES" border="1" bordercolor="#FF9900">
<frame src="header2.php" name="topFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize >
<frame src="main.htm" name="mainFrame" scrolling="NO">
</frameset>
<frame src="stats.php" name="rightFrame" scrolling="AUTO" noresize>
</frameset>
</frameset>

Hope thats what you meant!

Assuming "mainFrame" is the "mainContentFrame" you mention, try changing this:

parent.frames['leftFrame'].location.reload(true);

to this:

top.frames['leftFrame'].location.reload(true);

mainContentFrame is an iFrame within mainFrame

The code you said does not work on my site

Could it be something to do with being used in onLoad() code?

 

[BillyRayPreachersSon]

It's possibly a domain security thing. Are the contents of the iframe in the same domain as the frame that you are trying to reload?

Yep, they are all on the same domain
