javascript events outside of form

327 posts

I have a form embedded in a frame (or iframe) and I need to know in the javascript outside of the form when a button has been pressed so I can refresh a list of form links elsewhere on the page.

Is this possible?

thanks

Hi Brian,

If both the content of the iframe and container are served from the same server (same origin), then the content of the iframe can call JavaScript declared in the container.

Assuming this is the case, in the process for the said button, you can call navigate(uri = "javascript: window.parent.buttonPressed()") calling a buttonPressed() JavaScript function you declared in the parent window.
