Frustrated with frames!

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Mar 27.2003

I’m a relatively new javascript user (so be nice) and I have a situation I can’t figure out.

I have links in a dropdown menu that link from a company intranet site to several internet sites.

The problem is that the site that this dropdown menu resides on is a frames site and the links open the internet sites in the main frame of the frame set and not in a new browser session the way I would like them to.

This is the generic code I’m using to control the dropdowns – what am I missing?

<!– function functionName() { location.href = formName.listName.options formName.listName.selectedIndex].value } // –>

Thanks!

@JonaMar 27.2003 — function functionName(){

location.href = window.parentFrameName.formName.selectboxName[window.parentFrameName.formName.selectboxName.options.selectedIndex].value;

}

That should all go on one line...

Success!
