Oct 11.2005

I cant get this to work and I don’t know why. I want the links in the menu to load in the iframe. But i’m having many difficulties…

<form name=”dropdown”>
<select name=”menu1″>
<option value=”#”>SELECT:</option>

<option value=”blah/blah.jpg” target=”black”>blah 1</option>

</select> <input type=”button” value=”Go” onClick=”parent.black.location.href=document.dropdown.menu1.options[document.dropdown.menu1.selectedIndex].value”>
</form>
<br><hr><br>

<div id=”floatframe”>
<iframe width=”300″ height=”225″ src=”Old/black.html” name=”black” align=center frameborder=7> </iframe></div>
</center>

If you can help, please send answer or new script (in html plz, no css or java) to [email][email protected][/email] for a quicker response.

@avaOct 14.2005 — Try using:
[CODE]<input value="Go!" type="button" onClick="document.frames[0].location.href(document.dropdown.menu1.options[document.dropdown.menu1.selectedIndex].value)">[/CODE]
for the button.

@konithomimoOct 14.2005 — Notice the parts in bold:

<input type="button" value="Go" onClick="parent.black.[B]location.href[/B]=document.dropdown.menu1.options[document.dropdown.menu1.selectedIndex].value">

And then:

<iframe width="300" height="225" [B]src="Old/black.html"[/B] name="black" align=center frameborder=7> </iframe>

SRC and HREF are not the same thing. Also, give your iframe an ID:

here are how the two lines should be:

<input type="button" value="Go" onClick="document.getElementById('black').src=document.dropdown.menu1.options[document.dropdown.menu1.selectedIndex].value">

and

<iframe name="black" id="black" width="300" height="225" src="Old/black.html" align=center frameborder=7> </iframe>

Success!
