Hi @ all,

how can I change a pic in frame1 from frame2?
I have frame1 "top" und frame2 "main". I
want to change the source of a pic in frame "top"
from the code in frame "main".

I tried this code

window.top.images[3].src="pictures/indicator_event.gif";

but it don't work.

Thank you for your help.

Would a hyperlink be better? You can specify the target frame in the hyperlink code

<A HREF="../Conveyors/Index.htm"etc TARGET="Frame">

(i've cut the mouseover image bits out of the middle)

Is this what you mean?

in the frame where the image is give the image an id atribute with a value.say
id = "image1"

then in the frame where you want to change the image from, use a function like this

<script type="text/javascript">
function changeImage(){
var img = parent.frames[0].document.getElementById("image1");
/the frames[0] index points the first frame in a frameset,you mau have to insert to correct frame index or name in here.
img.setAttribute("src","../images/flake.gif")
//change the source path accordingly.
}

</script>
</head>

<body>
<a href="javascript:changeImage();">Change image in top frame</a>


cheers
