Actually, I just discovered one of my STUPID errors (camelcase vs uppercase
on the HTML part of innerHTML) below and it turns out that
var fnTemp = new Function( "sValue", "window." + this._frameId +
".document.documentElement.innerHTML = sValue;" );
fnTemp( sValue );
does the trick.
Ugly, but it works. Anything more elegant, similar to
window.frames(sFrameName).document.documentElement.innerHtml = sValue;
??
Thanks
