Hi all,

I have a page that uses frames. I have a print button on the top frame that should print the bottom frame. It works just fine in Netscape but doesn't in IE.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

I haven't yet got round to setting up my printer so I haven't been able to try this, but it should work. In toolbar.html change the following line of code:

Code Sample:<AREA SHAPE=RECT COORDS="196,6,241,39" HREF="javascript:window.print()" TARGET="form" ALT="">

to this:

Code Sample:<AREA SHAPE=RECT COORDS="196,6,241,39" HREF="javascript:parent.form.print()" ALT="">

Hope this works

Thanks Tom,

Still doesn't work. I keep getting the top toolbar printed.

Anyone else have any ideas?

Hello everyone,

I finally found the answer to my dilema at the following url http://www.webreference.com/js/tips/991123.html

The problem is changing the focus to the proper frame.

If anyone can make this work better with less code I am still interested.

Thanks
