Works in IE not in FireFox.

[sabev]

parent.MapSomedataFS.rows = “*,170,0,0”;

Works in IE, but won’t work in FireFox. MapSomedataFS is a name of a FRAMESET and I need to be able to dynamically resize it.

I get the error – parent.MapSomedataFS has no properties. On the javascript console in FireFox.

Thanks

hmm,
try

top.frames['MapSomedataFS'].rows = "*,170,0,0";

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestions. I tried both and they both error out in IE.

top.frames['MapSomedataFS'].rows = "*,170,0,0";

Produces the error - top.frames['MapSomedataFS'] is not an object

parent.document.getElementById('MapSomedataFS').setAttribute('rows','25%,25%,25%,25%',0);

Produces the error – ‘parent.document.getElementById('MapSomedataFS')(…)’ is not an object’

where is your code located?

It's only available on our intranet at the moment, but here is the frameset code.

Sorry it's hard to read not sure how I should format it for this forum.


</HEAD>

<FRAMESET ROWS="35,*">
        <FRAME NAME="ToolFrame" SRC="blank.htm">
        <FRAMESET COLS="175,*,110">    
            <FRAMESET rows="40,*>
                <FRAME NAME="ModeFrame" SRC="bottom.htm"
                <FRAME NAME="TOCFrame" SRC="blank.htm">
            </FRAMESET> 
            <FRAMESET rows="*,0,0,0" ID="MapSomdataFS">    
                <FRAME NAME="MapFrame" SRC="MapFrame.htm">
                <FRAME NAME="TextFrame"SRC="blank.htm">   
                <FRAME NAME="PostFrame" SRC="blank.htm">   
                <FRAME NAME="BottomFrame" SRC="bottom.asp">
            </FRAMESET> 
            <FRAME NAME="QueryFrame" SRC="ParcelQuery.htm">
        </FRAMESET>
</FRAMESET>

That should be easier to read.

The code - parent.MapSomdataFS.rows = "*,170,0,0"; is located in an .htm file that gets loaded in to the FRAME NAME = "TextFrame" The code runs as soon as it loads.

Aaah - if the code is not in a frame off of the main frameset, you'd need to adjust the number of times you used "parent".

Hope this helps,
