application_development thread: Dynamically updating a frame


Message #1 by anita.reynolds@t... on Wed, 9 Jan 2002 16:23:33
Our present design is to have a "main" page with a frame down the side for

database table selections, a frame on the top for a 'logo', a large frame 

for form input, display results, etc., and a small frame across the bottom 

to dynamically issue messages such as, "Table xxxx successfully updated!",

etc.  We are using the Coldfusion product (and HTML) to perform our 

processing.  At present, the "main" frame, when it is displayed, directs a 

load to the "large frame," and all subsequent processing, by default, 

takes place in this "large frame."  Is there some way, while processing 

table updates and the like, that I can output dynamic messages to the

"small frame" across the bottom of the "main" page?

Hi Anita,=0D=0A=0D=0AYou can dynamically change the location of the small f

rame using Jaascript or VBScript and thus by show different messages.=0D=0A
