problem accessing document in generated iframe

[sadie]

Hi,

I'm having some trouble accessing a form in a generated iframe. I can
only access the frame using the document.getElementById() method (the
frame is not in the frames array since it is dynamically generated)
and then I cannot seem to then get access to the document inside the
frame.

//this returns a frame element
frm = document.getElementById("frame1");

//returns undefined
alert(frm.document);

ultimately I am trying to access a form inside the frame.

Any ideas?

That's not possible with the logic of my app. I'm trying to use the
iFrame within a google maps infoWindow, so there isn't anywhere to
hard-code it in the page. Is there any other way to access the frame
document??

Ok, I found a work around where I don't need to access the frame
document from the parent page, but I'm still curious if there was
anyway to do it and if not why?

btw, thanks for the quick reply Randy.
