IFrame and Firefox - Javascript

Steven

I am having problems with IFrames and Firefox.

To make things simple I have index.html and frame.html:

------------ index.html -----------------
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<script language="javas cript" type="text/javascript">

</script>
</head>
<body>

<h1>Here is the IFrame</h1>

<iframe id="myFrame" name="myFrame" src="./frame.html"></iframe>

<br /><br />

<input type="button" onClick="getTex tBoxValue();" value="Get Text Box
Value" />
  &nb sp; 
<input type="button" onClick="getIFr ameSRC();" value="Get IFrame SRC"
/>

</body>
</html>
------------ frame.html -----------------
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
Hello, I am in your frame...
<br /><br />
<input type="text" name="myTextBox " />
</body>
</html>
My problem is anytime I try to reference the IFrame and beyond, I get
the following error:

Error: document.frames has no properties

This works fine in IE.

How can I reference the IFrame and its contents in Firefox?

Thanks in advance...

Well, IE is incorrectly returning an object on the wrong parent, and your
code is
misaddressing the iframe, as window.document and window.myFrame are
siblings and they have the
same parent, WINDOW, so, Firefox is correctly not returning an object for
the wrong addressing,
should be window.frames['myframe'] or window.myFrame;
