I have two pages. One with an iframe in the body:

<iframe name=ifr1 width=100 height=100 src=ifr1.html></iframe>

and ifr1.html with a form:

<form name=f1 id=f1>
<input type="Hidden" name="hid" value="hid">
</form>
In the main (first) file I want to access form f1 elements:
document.ifr1.document.f1 and
document.ifr1.document.forms[0] and
document.ifr1.document.forms['f1'] and
frames.ifr1.document.f1 gives me undefined.

How can I access form elements inside a iframe?

I've tried that:

ifr1.document.f1.hid

For ifr1.document I get [object], but ifr1.document.f1 or ifr1.document.forms[0] gives undefined too, as if there were no forms. Just can't get it...

Browser is IE 6.0

and it give me [object].

Sorry, can't seems to solve your problem. Maybe some other people here can.

Thanks to JHL. Maybe I've missed something else in my code files. Are there any requirements?
