IFRAME AS FORM TARGET! POSSIBLE?

[Federico Bari]

Hi all,

does somebody know how to target the answer of a form to an iframe (in
ie expecially)???? I use iframe as temporary object to redirect the content
do a layer built with a <div...> tag; this is possible with an hiperlink:
clicking on it i can change the layer content whit a file in a URL location
storing the answer first in the iframe and then sending is content to the
<div...>. Here following the code:

<script>
function showText(){
theText = window.textFile.document.body.innerHTML;
MM_setTextOfLayer('Layer1','',theText)
if(theText>"")
alert(theText);
}
</script>

[...]

<div id="Layer1" style="position:absolute; left:218px; top:120px;
width:205px; height:134px; z-index:1"></div>
<p onClick="window.textFile.location = 'testo.txt'">prova </p>

testo.txt is just a static file; now i need to upgrad the final <div...>
layer with the answer of a form gived by a php script who accep GCI variable
.... i need to target the temp <iframe...> with a real html form. Somebody
know how can i do?????

Thank you very much. Federico.

The target attribute of the form must match the name attribute of the IFrame. But it won't work in anything but IE (as I recall.) So you should dynamically set the target on document load after determining that the browser has an implementation of the object model that treats IFrames in the same way it treats regular frames (check the frames collection of the window for the IFrame element.)
