Updating two frames at a time
Question: Can I update two (or more) frames simultaneously?
Answer:
Yes. The easiest way to update several frames simultaneously is
to have a JavaScript function that loads a new page into each of the frames
to be updated. For example, if you have two frames,
left and right, then the function for updating both frames
might look like this:
function updateBothFrames() {
top.left.location="newpage1.htm";
top.right.location="newpage2.htm";
}
This function can be called when the user presses a button or clicks a hyperlink.
The following example shows the HTML code for a button and hyperlink
that invoke the function:
<a href="javascript:updateBothFrames()">Click here</a>
<input type=button value="Press me" onClick="updateBothFrames()">
