Problems getting document title from iframe

[Adam Lipscombe]

Folks,


I want to be able to get title of a document that is presented within an Iframe with the id
"popupFrame". There may be more than 1 instance of the iframe in the page.


This is my code:

var elementCount = document.all("popupFrame").length;
for (var i = 0 ; i < elementCount ; i++)
{
alert("src = " + document.all("popupFrame",i).src);
alert("title = " + document.all("popupFrame",i).document.title);
}


But the wierd thing is that the title is always the title of the document that contains the Iframe.
NOT the title of the document conatined within the Iframe.
At least in IE7 which is all that I have tested it with so far.


Any ideas? What am I missing?


TIA - Adam

Sorry I should have added that the Iframe src is always correct.

i.e. alert("src = " + document.all("popupFrame",i).src) displays the correct url but
alert("title = " + document.all("popupFrame",i).document.title) displays the title of the document
that contains the iframe.


Thanks...

You can't have more than *one* element with same *id* !!!


<iframe name="myFrame" src="test.htm" blah></iframe>

<a href="javascript:alert(parent.myFrame.document.title);">my frame

This is my code:

var elementCount = document.all("popupFrame").length;
for (var i = 0 ; i < elementCount ; i++)
{
alert("src = " + document.all("popupFrame",i).src);
alert("title = " + document.all("popupFrame",i).document.title);
}

for (var i = 0 ; i < elementCount ; i++)
{
alert("src = " + document.all["popupFrame"].src);
if(document.all("popupFrame").document &&
document.all("popupFrame").document.title)
alert("title = " + document.all("popupFrame").document.title);
}

But the wierd thing is that the title is always the title of the
document that contains the Iframe. NOT the title of the document
conatined within the Iframe.

document.all("popupFrame") ????
document.all["popupFrame"] ????

document title</a>

That is a joke, right?

This is my code:

var elementCount = document.all("popupFrame").length;
for (var i = 0 ; i < elementCount ; i++)
{
alert("src = " + document.all("popupFrame",i).src);
alert("title = " + document.all("popupFrame",i).document.title);
}

for (var i = 0 ; i < elementCount ; i++)
{
alert("src = " + document.all["popupFrame"].src);

document.all?? Shame, shame..... window.frames.
