Joel -

I have written several applications for WebTV that do just this sort of thing; I usually use "parent.frames.frameName.document.location = URL.

I hope that helps,

Jos


: I have a link like: href="javascript:ShowIDX()"

: ShowIDX looks like this:
: parent.h_topic.location.href="somenewurl.htm"

: I have also tried
: parent.frames[1].href="somenewurl.htm"

: If I put an alert in this function, it comes up so I know the function is getting called. The problem is that the frame doesn't change. This works fine in Nav3+/IE3+.

: thanks

: Is there any more detailed information on WebTV and javascript and frames? This site just skims over the details.
