Get form values from iframe (1) to iframe (2) inside a layer in iframe (1)

[Daedalous]

This is what I currently have:

parent.frames['iframe1'].document.getElementById['layer'].frames['iframe2'].document.forms['form2']['field2'].value
= parent.frames['iframe1'].document.forms['form1']['field1'].value

And where are you trying to get to?

Try
parent.frames['iframe1'].frames['iframe2'].document.forms['form2'].
elements['field2'].value =
...
I.e., drop the getElementById. That just gives you an element on the page,
which has no frames attriute (only in Netscape 4 did layers contains
documents, in later browsers there was no such thing as a <layer>, and
only the name stuck (to much confuzion)).

I'm now able to get values into the iframe2 by using:

document.frames['iframe2'].document.getElementById('value2').value =
somevaluejusttotest;

But I am still unnable to get the values from the first iframe into
the the one in the second iframe.

Thank you in advance and to those that already did or tried.
