How to make Javascript update IFRAME SRC?

[Dave Anderson]

How can I make an onchange event update the src for an IFRAME? I would like
to do it without reloading the page, is this possible?

<iframe name="iframeName" src="whatever.html"></iframe>

<select onchange="if (window.frames && window.frames.iframeName) {
window.frames.iframeName.location.href =
this.options[this.selectedIndex].value;
}">

No, Martin's formulation is the most cross-browsers code for the task
and will work on significantly more browsers than attempting to re-set
the SRC of an IDed IFRAME by assigning to its src property.
