I'm trying to set the innerHTML property of an IFrame in NN 6.01.
It only seems to work intermittently and never the way I want.
Ideally, I would like to be able to:
window.frames(sFrameName).document.documentElement.innerHtml = sValue;
I come pretty close with the test script below, but never quite win the
booby prize.
I've been checking google, faqts, netscape, jstips and everything else
referred to on these groups for the past two days and am completely
frustrated. No one seems to be able to do it exactly the way I need it.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
Tony
