javascript, frames and reload

**majatalo** · 06-26-2005 02:58 AM

hi
I have pages that has 3 frames(top,left,right)
when page is loaded top frame has logo, left frame has navigation page
and right frame has welcome page.

left frame contains image map and javascript menu. All links are opened in right frame.

here is the problem. when any link is opened in right frame, javascript menu stops working. i can make it work again if page that opened has following in onload.

window.parent.location.reload();

problem with this is that it will also replace just opened page with welcome page.

so my question is How can i use that reload but keep just opened page.
or where should i start searching problem with that menu.

You are going about this wrong, there is no reason why you can't fix your javascript menu.

Do you have a testing page that we can look at so we can write you up some specific code to fix it?

Nope , i'm doing webpages for friend. And only his old pages are on net.

I'm jusing hvmenu that I found on net. it easy and simple.
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/hvmenu/

here is main page code
<FRAMESET rows="127,*" BORDER=0 FRAMEBORDER=0 FRAMESPACING=0>
<FRAME name="top" src="logo.htm" SCROLLING="no" noresize marginheight="0" marginwidth="0">
<FRAMESET cols="265,*">
<FRAME name="left" src="navi2.htm" SCROLLING="no" noresize marginheight="0" marginwidth="0">
<FRAME name="right" src="yritys.htm" SCROLLING="no">
</FRAMESET>
</HEAD>
<BODY text=black vLink=black aLink=black bgColor=white SIZE="1" FACE="Verdana" >

here is navi2.htm

<BODY bgColor=white>
<script type='text/javascript'>
function Go(){return}

</script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='exmplmenu_var.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='menu_com.js'></script>
<noscript>Your browser does not support script</noscript>

<MAP Name="navimap">
<AREA Href="yritys.htm" Shape="rect" Coords="0,22,142,44" target="sivu" >
<AREA Href="Edustukset.htm" Shape="rect" Coords="0,54,142,76" target="sivu" >
<AREA Href="yhteystiedot.htm" Shape="rect" Coords="0,85,142,109" target="sivu">
</MAP>
<IMG Src="kuvat\menumap.gif" Usemap="#navimap" ALIGN=RIGHT Width="142" Height="244" Ismap>

here is part one of pages that will be loaded from link

<script type='text/javascript'>
function lataus()
{
window.frames['navi'].location.reload()

}
</script>
</HEAD>

<BODY onLoad="()">

rest of pages are pure HTML
js files of hv-menu are same, only frame configuration has been changed.

<AREA ... target="right">

ahhh fixed that...

but still no better.

javascript still stops working when link is opened in right frame or if I use reload script, then page that is opened in right frame will be replaced with wellcome page.
