Hello All,

I am having this problem.

I have a page main.html.

Inside that I have a page inside an iframe, frame.html.

Now I have some tabs in iframe, and for changing tabs i need to call few javascript functions within the frame itself.

In frame.html I have a javascript function, changetab() {} which is called upon when one clicks on a tab in the frame.html. However when I am clicking on the tabs I am getting changetab() not defined.

I am calling the function simply by the name, changetab().

Can someone tell me whats the problem is. I have little experience with iframes :(

main.html

<html>
<body>
<iframe height="200px" width="100px" src="frame.html" id="frame" name="frame" frameborder="0"></iframe>
</body>
</html>

and the frame.html is like this:

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function jump() {
alert("Hi");
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="submit" onclick="jump()" value="Click Me"/>
</body>
</html>

Its something like this. I am not trying to interact between the two frames at all. I just want the the iframe to call a function within itself normally.

Thanks in advance,
Imoracle

I don't see any problem with that code. I even just tested it and it works fine. It's better to post the exact code that you're using so that problems such as syntax errors can be identified.

I am sorry for the nuciance I created the other day. It was a silly mistake from my side, which was basically attaching a javascript file with type="text/css" thing in this. :(

A big blunder and I didnt cared to look at it while debugging,

Anyways thanks everyone for the help.
