open the dhtml window from inside a frame

[antonyf]

1) Script Title: DHTML Window widget

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...ndow/index.htm

3) Describe problem: Stuck trying to open the dhtmlwindow from a page inside an iframe, so that the page loads outside the iframe.

I have an index.php with a iframe which loads a page2.html. On page2.html i have a dhtmlwindow.open link.. But when i open the link the dhtmlwindow it opens inside the iframe, and i am struggling to open it outside the iframe, so that it can drag over the entire index.php page..

I have the script and css included on both pages IE: my index.php and the Page2.html. I would like to use this FIX. For both the iframe and div version of the dhtmlwindow.open

Best regards
Antony

The normal way to activate something outside the iframe is putting parent. before your javascript. In this case, you would do something like:
uniquevar=parent.dhtmlwindow.open(uniqueID, contenttype, contentsource, title, attributes, [recalonload])
I haven't tested it.
