Submitting a form to an ASP in an iframe

[modalman]

Hi. Whenever I try to submit a form to an iframe using the iframes name as the target the browser (ie5) always opens a new window as if the named iframe doesn't exist. Is that a disadvantage of an iframe or am I doing something wrong. My intention is for the ASP in the iframe to read the form fields. My code is:

document.exVars.target="myframe";
document.exVars.submit();

That is triggered from an onload so the iframe should be parsed by then. exVars is the form name. My iframe tag is:

<iframe name=&quot;myframe&quot; src=&quot;&quot;></iframe>

Many thanks in advance. ASCII silly question, get a silly ANSI
