Hi everyone

I have the next scriptje that unfortunately does not work:

Code:

<html> 
<head><title>test.html</title></head> 
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> 
function checkFrame() { 
var obj = document.frames.frame; 
if (obj.document.title != "The page cannot be found") { 
obj.location = "fout.html"; 



} 
} 


</SCRIPT> 
<body onload="frame.location.href = self.location.search.substr(1)"> 
<iframe name="frame" height="100%" width="100%" align="middle" 
border="0" frameborder="no"> </iframe> 

</body></html>

Gladly I, if the page cannot be reflected, an alternative (wrongly)
page reflect in the frame.

Can someone help me?

thx alot

It is impossible to reference to the document object of a frame if a page has failed to load. You will only get an "Access Denied" error if you try to do document.frames.frame.document .
JavaScript isn't allowed to do anything to a page that doesn't belong to the site it was started on.

Also, it is not good practice to use give a name attribute to a a tag and reference it directly. That will only work in Internet Explorer. Do document.body.frame instead or give the tag an id="frame" attribute and reference to it using document.getElementById('frame').
