<i>
 </i>function yourFunction(){
 if(!document.getElementById) return;
 document.getElementById('iframe2').location.href = 'racing.htm';
 }

[font=trebuchet ms]Be sure to give the IFrame an ID, too.[/font]

<i>
 </i>id="iframe2"

[font=trebuchet ms]There may also be a way to refer to it as a frame, though I'm unsure (since I [i]rarely[/i] have a need for IFrames).[/font]

<i>
 </i>top.frames[1].location.href = 'racing.htm';

@gert_cuykensauthorJan 17.2005 — #firefox:

<IFRAME id="iframe2" name="iframe2" SRC="iframe2.htm" scrolling="no" frameborder="0"></IFRAME>

<span class=link onClick="document.iframe2.location.href='iframe2.htm';">about</span>

Error: document.iframe2 has no properties

<span class=link onClick="document.getElementById('iframe2').location.href='racing.htm';">racing</span>

Error: document.getElementById("iframe2").location has no properties

@JonaJan 17.2005 — #[font=trebuchet ms]It's a window-object, so that's probably why it's not finding its ID. Did you see my edit and try it also?[/font]

@gert_cuykensauthorJan 17.2005 — #top.frames[1].location.href = 'racing.htm';

Error: top.frames[1] has no properties

@PittimannJan 17.2005 — #Hi!

Make sure, your iframes have [B]name [/B]attributes for this example:

top.frames['iframe1'].frames['iframe2'].location.href='racing.htm'

lol can you believe that this actualy works ?

thx

@PittimannJan 17.2005 — #[i]Originally posted by gert cuykens [/i]

[B]top.frames['iframe1'].frames['iframe2'].location.href='racing.htm'

lol can you believe that this actualy works ?

thx [/B][/QUOTE]It had to. The problems you were running into just derived from the fact that your iframes are "nested". I'm happy, that this simple line of code helped.

Cheers - Pit ?
