Script Execution

[Rsmastermind]

Hi all,

I am executing a code here is the description of that........

[CODE=javascript]function abc(){


window.open(som e file name with parameter and in different frame)//Line 1
alert('anything ');
.............
.............//then acessing dom of that opened frame and doing operation

}[/CODE]

The problem is it gives alert first and then it loads the page in the frame.
But even then it is not doing operation on the DOM.

But I had checked if i am commenting the Line 1 then the code is operating
on the already loaded page in the target frame.

So I want to know that is there any sequence of executing the Javascript
or In this language there is preference to some special API.

dom operations could just be executed after! the dom is ready ... so you could open the window and assign the code that should be executed to the onload of the document that is to be loaded in this window.

But in the first line I am loading that DOM.In the second line I am executing the code.Also If I am using different functions for this purpose.
Like
In function 1() I am loading that page and calling function 2() from function 1()
then also the problem is same.

If the problem will be there then what should I do?

... i cannot see this usage from the posted code ... could you post it please so that i could have a closer look at it? open.window() doesn't load the dom already it just opens a window and then the document will be loaded ...

kind regards

ok

[CODE=javascript]function abc()
{

window.open('pq r.html','name of the frame','');
var labelId=top.fra mes[name of the frame].document.getEl ementsByTagName (someTag);
labellength=lab elId.length;
for(i=0;i<label length;i++){

doing some operation

}
}[/CODE]

i guess that you want to retrieve the nodes in the opened document? in this case the function should look something like this:

[CODE=javascript]function abc() {
var foo = window.open('te st.html', 'foobar');

foo.onload = function() {
var labelId = document.getEle mentsByTagName( 'input');
labellength = labelId.length;

for (var i = 0; i < labellength; i++) {
alert(i);
}
}
}[/CODE]
note that the code is assigned to the onload-handler of the window that is opened by the script.

kind regards
