Hi,

did you try parent.window.location ?

If you need to go up 2 levels: parent.parent.etc

if you need to traverse to another frame try:
parent.frames["someframename"].location

You can also access JS-routines on other pages that way.

However, there are some securityrestrictions.
If one of the frames comes from another domain, you will find you cannot
access what you want.

Hope this helps.
