@FangOct 13.2005 — What is your [I]frameset[/I] and from where are you calling the function?

@champiauthorOct 14.2005 — Here is my frameset

frameset rows="15,*" frameborder="no" border="0" framespacing="0">

<frame src="sound.asp" name="mainFrame" id="top_frame" />

<frame src="main.asp" name="bottomFrame" scrolling="Yes" noresize="noresize" id="bottom_frame" />

</frameset><noframes></noframes>

And I am calling the function from the main.asp page

@augustOct 14.2005 — Probably because the frame you refer to as "top_frame" has that value assigned to its "ID" attribute, but when you refer to "ID"s from JavaScript you should probably use the document.getElementById("top_frame") method, since the parent.elementName format usually refers to the "name" attribute of html elements. So you're refering to the [I]name[/I] "top_frame" which doesn't exist.

If that holds true you should try: [CODE]parent.[COLOR=Indigo]mainFrame[/COLOR].location="sanlameer/sound_sanlameer.asp"[/CODE]

Or just swap the ID and Name values.
