how to call a javascript function in the top frame?
- by Rory
This seems really simple, but how do I call a javascript function that's defined in the top-level html, from a child frame?
top html doc
- 1st level frame
- 2nd level frame
my top html doc has a function called testFn(). In the 2nd level frame I have a button with onclick="top.testFn();" but this doesn't call the testFn(). In Firebug if I use a watch to execute top.testFn(); it says TypeError: testFn() is not a function.
Should this all just work - in which case it's a problem with my documents, or is there some other way to call functions in the top-level window?
