    Population of checkboxes function called in a different frame

    Hello All:

    I am trying to populate a list of checkboxes in a different frame that
    the frame in which I am calling the function from. Below is an
    example:

    404 Not Found
    http://www.gabrielmurphy.com/javascript/5/


    The left frame contains the checkbox titled "Check All". When I click
    this (onClick), I would like for it to invoke the function in the
    right frame that automatically populates the checkboxes.

    From the example above, I can get this to work for a textlink (click
    on "Check All") but I cannot get it to work for checkboxes.

    Any help would be appreciated.

      I think it should be targetname.form name.checkboxna me.checked or something

      so to check boxes CALLED "MYCHECKS" in frame called 'MAIN" in a form called
      "MYFORM" from a frame 'X'. You would put:-
      MAIN.MYFORM.MYC HECKS.checked = True (if you are doing a list of checkboxes
      with the smae name you need to loop round the number of checkboxes you have
      from 0 to x and put MAIN.MYFORM.MYC HECKS[i].checked = true

      Code not tested, but I think this is the way to do it.

      Good luck

      Stu

          You should use the onChange handler for checkboxes =)
