Menu
I have a multi-frame layout. One of the frames contains a form, which I am submitting through XMLHttpRequest. Now when I use document.write() to rewrite the frame with the form, and the new page I am adding contains any javascript then the javascript is not exectuted in IE6?
For example:
document.write("<html><head><script>alert(1);</script></head><body>test</body></html>");
In the above case the page content is replaced with test but the alert() isn't executed. This works fine in Firefox.
What is a workaround to the above problem?
Instead of having the JS code out in the open, enclose it in a function (let's call it "doIt"). Your frame window (let's say it's name is "formFrame") has a parent window (even if it's not visible) in which you can execute JS code. Do the actual frame rewrite operation in that scope:
window.parent.rewriteFormFrame(theHtml);
Where rewriteFormFrame function in the parent window looks something like this:
function rewriteFormFrame(html) {
formFrame.document.body.innerHTML = html;
formFrame.doIt();
}
