cannot get html by using document.innerHTML

[druss]

i am getting no errors from the javascript however i still cannot use the html that is extracted by using then document.innerHTML method.

i have a page that decrypts a javascript encryption that i am using, so far i am able to decrypt and even write the output in another fram however i cannot get the html source code in an iframe one the same page as the decryption script. the page in the ifram is not a third party page.

so far this is where i think its going wrong:


var counter = document.frames['test'].document.innerHTML;
function decryptform() {
encryptedsource = decrypt(counter, "`", "78")


it works fine when on the page in the 'test' iframe has the following content


<script>window.top.decryptform('9834756383479')</script>


however then the main script page must be changed to the following:


function decryptform(counter) {
encryptedsource = decrypt(counter, "`", "78")


could someone please tell me where i am going wrong while trying to get the html from the page in the 'test' iframe and put it in the variable counter.

also the html in the iframe is a single line.

i am sorry that i cannot post the actual whole script but it is far too large.

Thanks

Try using document.body.innerHTML instead.

nup, no luck.

i tried changing it to:
document.frames['test'].body.innerHTML;

and to:
document.body.frames['test'].innerHTML;

any other way??

[fredmv]

document.frames['test'].document.body.innerHTML;

[druss]

sorry, still nothing.....

could it be that it is getting the code but just not writing it out?? or is there another way??

thanks alot for your help

You're welcome. Try this:alert(document.frames['test'].document.body.innerHTML);

[druss]

hmmm, no alert message comes up at all, nor does an error??


i thought maybe you would need the iframe line i used

<iframe src="test.htm" name="test"></iframe>




ok when i modified it and changed the code to the following i got the alert and it said undefined
<iframe src="test.htm" name="test"></iframe>
<script>alert(document.frames['test'].document.innerHTML);</script>
