Yes there is, and you can find out more here: http://www.dyn-web.com/tutorials/iframes/ I recently had a similar problem and something like $('generateId').contentWindow.$('type').focus(); should work. Just be sure that you have Prototype loaded in both the parent and the child frame, since they are different execution contexts. The magic reference is to contentWindow of the iFrame. More about that in the above tutorial. As far as I know this works in the latest Firefox, Safari, Chrome and probably IE8. No guarantees for earlier browsers.
