findInPage

[Henriksen]

I have this :

<form name="search" onSubmit="return
window.opener.findInPage(this.string.value)">

But I would like to change it to search on the main frame,
from the menu frame.
Is that possible ?

Well what is the relation between those two frames? Perhaps
return window.parent.frames.mainFrameName.findInPage(this.string.value)
is what you are looking for, if those two frames are in the same
frameset window.

Thanx a lot, this works:
onSubmit="return
window.parent.frames.main.findInPage(this.string.value)">

But only in IE, not in FF .... any clue ?

Well what exactly happens in FF? Do you get an error in the error
console? Which one exactly?
Do you have
<frame name="main" src="foo.html">

There are no errors in he console.

I testet the script, found on :
http://www.hypergurl.com/searchpage.html
Inside the page, but it does not work in FF,
so it has nothing to do with the frame,
but the frame version is better, because else you can only press
search one time, or as long the page does not scroll.

I found out:

I changed this:
if (NS4)

to this:
if (/Firefox[\/\s](\d+\.\d+)/.test(navigator.userAgent))
