Hrm.. For some reason it doesn't seem to work...
Iframe from the parent page:
<iframe src="subEdit.asp" name="EditFrame" id="EditFrame"
style="display:block;"></iframe>
....and this javascript from the iframe page will show the name "EditFrame":
alert (parent.EditFrame.name);
....but this javascript from the iframe page causes an error:
parent.EditFrame.style.display="none";
.... the error being "Parent.EditFrame.style is not an object"
*sigh* What am I doing wrong?
