Fuhrer

Hi all,

i'm working on a page that contains 2 Frames,
in the first Frame i have an iframe included.
My problem is that i'm trying to call a javascript funtion located in the iframe from the second Frame but it does not work:

in the second Frame:

parent.mainFrame.datamain.hidemenu();

-mainFrame is the first frame
-datamain is the iframe (in the first frame)
-hidemenu() is the javascript function that i want to call.


Thank u.
