Hey all! It's me again! ^_^ Thanks so much for your help before! I totally appreciate it! I actually think I might even UNDERSTAND what ya'll said! hehe. Anywho, I'm on to a new "assignment" and here's a link to see where I'm at so far: http://www.geocities.com/genevievescu/GettingFramed.html

Now, as you can see (if you click the rolling eyed pic) it looks much like my last problem did...only thing is for some reason I can't get the rollover PICS to change the pic in the top part. Here's my code so far for the significant section of it:

<center>
<!--Image Swap here-->

<a href="#" onMouseOver="temp=image1; image1=image2; image2=image3; image3=temp; window.document.rolleyes_bottom.src=image1" onClick="parent.control.document.rolleyes_top.src=image1;"><img src="Pics/rolleyes.gif" name="rolleyes_bottom" border="0"></a>

</center>

The changing pic seems to work but nothing "onClick" isn't working right. My top image (refresher) is named "rolleyes_top" (if you viewed source you would see this) and my control panel is called "control"....if you need more of my specific code, lemmie know. Any help would be MOST appreciated!

Thanks everyone in advance!

When using Frames you have to specify where the frame is. In this case it would be your "top" frame right? So in you onClick you have to say target="top".

Check out w3Schools for info on that but I am pretty sure that that is what you need.

When I made target="top_window" (which is what I named that top part) it gave me the body of the bottom (click.html) IN the top_window...

Did I do it wrong?

<a href="#" onMouseOver="temp=image1; image1=image2; image2=image3; image3=temp; window.document.rolleyes_bottom.src=image1" onClick="parent.control.document.rolleyes_top.src=image1;" target="top_window"><img src="Pics/rolleyes.gif" name="rolleyes_bottom" border="0"></a>

Also, your link didn't work...can't find server name... Ack!

Thanks!
Hugs!

She actually does have the refrence to parent, but that's the main frameset

I'm pretty sure it should be
parent.top_window.document.rolleyes_top.src=image1

Where the main frameset page is the parent then you need the name of one of the two frames, since you want to change something in the top part (correct?) you use the name of that frame. I don't see anything named "control" (except for the html page but that's virtually worthless where JS is concerned) so I assume you want the name of that frame.

Well, after looking back at my post I have to give myself a good 'ol Homer Simpson "DOH!" Anyway did Bit's advice do the trick?

Fixed the link above. Check out W3Schools for JavaScript and just about everything else. I find it to be more informative than some things at WebMonkey.

I just tried it and it worked GREAT! Thanks so much!! I thought it had to refer to the html page but I see what you mean about it needing to refer to the actual frame in which the page resides.

Thanks so much!!! ::hugs!!!!:::

Yay!! This stuff just get's more and more fun!

As for the page: I'll check it out. Since I'm sorta teaching myself JavaScript by this tutorial and trial/error, it will be nice to have lots of references. The book my boss gave me was just way too confusing. It would give you this whole code w/out explaining half of it and then move on and I was like ....uh....I haven't a clue what you just did!! And there wasn't anything to practice because you couldn't understand enough. Now that I've figured out some stuff it might make more sense lol but it's supposed to teach a beginner JavaScript..not a good book :-\

Hugs!
