Child Fields – No solution found

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Dec 18.2009

Hey everyone,

Well, I built a local html page wich loads a popup containing a online hosted web page. This popup contains frames and a form field I want to fill out via JS.

The idea goes like that:
File:///c:auto-fill.html
– loads an external page in pop up:
— [url]http://www.whatever.com/form-with-frames.html[/url]
— how to fill this form from the autofill.html JS code.

I tried:
my_popup.document.frame2.form1.filedX.value=’anything’;
but won’t work.
I googled all over for a solution but found nothing.

Any ideas?

I'll look for a different form filling automation method.
