Hello, I am working in javascript and I need to access the parent element. I have 4 different html documents in the same folder.
The names are title, code, golf,tree. I am currently in the title document and I want to access a frame in the code document. I am new to programming in javascript and I know this is simple. Can someone please point me in the right direction.

This is the code I have so far. I believe in this exercise all pages will be loaded. This is the parent page. In the previous post I made up some of the names as I did not feel they were relevant. The actual names of the other pages are css dem and html with the html extension. All pages are to load into frames. This is my first project involving objects at this level. If you can just point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks

I have to appologize. I gave you the wrong parent. This course is very poor in its element to teach which is why I need to look for outside resources. I should have clued in earlier by the lack of a frameset.
Thanks.
This page is demo.html
I need to access the demo page from the title page.

from a page that is loaded into a frame you may use:
for example to get the list of frames at the parent level. so you could try: - alert(parent.frames.length);

btw. are you using this book ... is this all home-/coursework? ...
as long as you show effort to solve the problem for your own first ... we could go on with it :)
I am curious. I was wondering if the statement
windows.frames is equivalent to parent.frames.
Yes, this book is part of a long distance learning that I am enrolled in. I am enjoying the course but the time required to figure out some of these simple things that with a little guidance is easy is a little discouraging. I am happy to find this forum. Thank you for your assistance. I will be an active participant.

Hello
Reading the follwing document:
http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-positioning-970131#In-flow
it seems very clear that position:relative should be relative to the parent
element. So in the following test case element1 and element2 should be
placed side by side inside a centered white container element:

Hi,
My problem: Merging two datasets deletes parent elements, preserves
all children.
I've created two dataSets. Each use the same schema, parent-child
nested tables.
The first dataSet is loaded with historical data read from an XML
file. The second dataSet has current data filled from a dataGrid.

This is C code. I am trying to fill each node's Parent field with its parent because I am drawing nodes to the screen. However, I have not been able to get this working. Reading the output from the code and tracing it, it seems that the code does not continue recursing down into the tree to insert. Can someone please point me to what is wrong and help me understand why it is wrong? Thank you.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
