400 Bad Request Newbie error

pincopallo_it · Oct 23, 2007

I have a frameset like this :

<FRAMESET FRAMEBORDER ="no" scrolling ="no" COLS="30%,*">
<FRAME name ="frameA" scrolling ="no" SRC="NHXNWI017b.jsp">
<FRAMESET FRAMEBORDER ="no" scrolling ="no" ROWS="15%,85%">
<FRAME scrolling ="no" SRC="NHXNWI017a.jsp">
<FRAME name ="frameB" noresize="noresize" scrolling ="no" SRC="../
pathjsp/map_36.html#C3">

In NHXNWI017b.jsp there is a :

<table width="40%" class="color" border="0" cellPadding="3"
cellSpacing="1">
<tr>
<td nowrap><span class="obbligatorio">Forecast:</span></td>
<td nowrap colspan ="2"><select
OnChange="parent.getSelect(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value)"
name="fore">
<option value="12"selected >12
<option value="24">24
<option value="36">36
<option value="48">48
<option value="60">60
<option value="72">72
</select></td>

What I want is that changing the select on th the frame frameb i
change the html to be in frame frameB

im able to see the value with an alert but if i change the frameset in
this way i get 400 bad request !!!

<FRAMESET FRAMEBORDER ="no" scrolling ="no" COLS="30%,*">
<FRAME name ="framea" scrolling ="no" SRC="NHXNWI017b.jsp">
<FRAMESET FRAMEBORDER ="no" scrolling ="no" ROWS="15%,85%">
<FRAME scrolling ="no" SRC="NHXNWI017a.jsp">
<FRAME name ="frameb" noresize="noresize" scrolling ="no" SRC="../
icone/map_
<SCRIPT>
function getSelect(s) { alert(s) }
document.write(s)
</script>

I'm afraid your code design is highly unusual and error-prone, but
I'll refrain from that now.

Error 400 ('Bad Request') is in HTTP/1.1 defined as follows (RFC2616):
"The request could not be understood by the server due to malformed
syntax. The client SHOULD NOT repeat the request without
modifications."

The following setup should get you started:
