[Limraj]

This works.
Thank you very much rnd me.
info.html is indeed part of a frame.

it seems like info.html should be in a frame to me.

if you are simply changing the page location, there's no way to communicate to a page that doesn't exist at the time, so top won't help.


if that's the case, use name:

onclick="window.name=23; startJavaApplet();return false;"

then you can change:

var pr = top.port;  //Fails
alert("port " + pr);

to

var pr = top.name;  //Fails
alert("port " + pr);
