Page Refresh (Frames)

[peter11]

Is there a way to create a button that refreshes a page inside a frameset, not the whole frameset

Thanks,

Hey mate,

Try this....
Put this in the head section of the page.

<SCRIPT language=&quot;vbscript&quot;>
sub refresh()
document.all.frame1.src=&quot;Frame pagename here&quot;
end sub
</SCRIPT>

And this where you have the refresh button....
<IMG src=&quot;image.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;Refresh&quot; onclick=&quot;vbscript:refresh()&quot;>

And also five the frame a name of &quot;frame1&quot;

Hope this is helpful

pixel69,

I tried the code and it did not work. The name of the frame is mainFrame but I changed it in the vbscript.

I also placed the vbscript in the head of the actual web page and the head of the frameset.

Is there something else I could be missing?

Move away from vbscript if you want to make your scripts cross-browser.
This is what you need:

<a href=&quot;#&quot; onclick=&quot;parent.frameName.location.reload()&quot;>reload this frame</a>

Replace the frameName with an actual frame name.
