onmouseover Help

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jun 17.2005

I have an iFrame on a page that onmouseover I want to put focus back on the main page (pretty sure that is what I need). Basically, I tried using this:

onmouseover=”window.document.focus()”

…to make it so when I roll over the iFrame it doesn’t let me scroll in the iFrame only the main page (until onclick or something). But I added (above) to the iFrame tag and the body tag of the iFrame src but it doesn’t work. This can’t be that difficult can it?

Thanks,
Jr-

@phpnoviceJun 17.2005 — onmouseover="top.document.focus()"

@Jr-authorJun 17.2005 — hmm... doesn't really work. It does the same thing what I had before did. It just brings the window to front but I still can't scroll in the main window when I'm over the iFrame.

@Jr-authorJun 17.2005 — ok... one more question... if I want the 'clear' <div> tag to come up onload can i do that without putting the onload event in the body?

@phpnoviceJun 17.2005 — Yup, just use [b]window.onload = function() { ... };[/b] anywhere in the page.
