Hi Kev! This is on the same domain, so no security issues. But, I
tried both of those top.top.frameB.functionname() and
parent.parent.frameB.functionname() but it doesn't work (still get the
'null or not an object error') Do you think it be something else?
Thank you so much for looking at this -- this is trying me bonkers!!
