writing to a frame - moz

i have a popup window that's built from javascript with something like:

source += "<html>";
source += " <head>";
source += " </head>";
source += " <frameset rows='100,*'>";
source += " <frame id='controls' name='controls' />";
source += " <frame id='data' name='data' />";
source += " </frameset>";
source += "</html>";

i'd like to "push" some content into the frames in mozilla. in IE, we
use the following:
popupwindow.doc ument.frames['data'].document.write (source);

but i get an error message that document doesn't exist. i use
mozilla's debugger and surely there's no document object on the frame
object. any ideas on how i can push content into these frames?

thanks!

I guess it is going to work if you start with
<frame name='data' src='about:blan k'>

i add the src, and it still doesn't seem to work. here's a test html
page. i had to turn off the pop up blocker in moz, as i couldn't figure
out how to unblock a local html file.

<html>
<head>
<script language="javas cript">

function init() {
alert( 'begin' );

var traceWindow = null;

try {

var iwinWidth = 320; // width of the new window
var iwinHeight = 600; // height of the new window
var iwinLeft = screen.width - (iwinWidth + 10); //(screen.width /
2) - (iwinWidth / 2);
var iwinTop = 10; //(screen.height / 2) - (iwinHeight / 2);
var sConfig="top=" + iwinTop + ",left=" + iwinLeft +",height=" +
iwinHeight + ",width=" + iwinWidth + ",scrollbars=ye s, resizable=yes";
var source;

traceWindow = window.open("", "_blank", sConfig);

source = "";
source += "<html>";
source += " <head>";
source += " </head>";
source += " <frameset rows='100,*'>";
source += " <frame id='controls' name='controls'
src='about:blan k'/>";
source += " <frame id='data' name='data' src='about:blan k' />";
source += " </frameset>";
source += "</html>";

traceWindow.doc ument.write(sou rce);
traceWindow.doc ument.close();

source = "";
source += "<html>";
source += " <head>";
source += " </head>";
source += " <body>";
source += "here";
source += " </body>";
source += "</html>";
traceWindow.doc ument.frames['controls'].document.write (source);

} catch (ex) {

alert(ex);

}
}

</script>
</head>
<body onload="init(); ">
testing
</body>
</html>

That needs to be
traceWindow.fra mes['control'].document.open( );
traceWindow.fra mes['control'].document.write (...);
traceWindow.fra mes['control'].document.close ();
to work with Netscape/Mozilla. Should work that way with IE too.

Hello to everybody, I've done an application that draws in a frame the trajectory of a robot.

Hi! I want to show a blinking text over my derived CMDIChildWnd-class. The blinking is done by one view which is hold by my frame.

Hi guys, I am struggling writing fast UDP server. It has to handle around 10000 UDP packets per second. I started building that with non blocking socket and threads. Unfortunately my approach does not work at all. I wrote a simple case test: client and server. The client sends 2200 packets within 0.137447118759 secs. The tcpdump received 2189 packets, which is not bad at all. But the server only handles 700 -- 870 packets, when it is...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
