Hi Claudio,

good thing you liked the code!
I hope these answers will help you:

>1 - You are using the window.onload =3D function (). In my case I will
have to use a <span> on a <a> tag (I will have a link at the navigation
bar at the top of the page. This is in the
> topFrame but my tables are in the mainFrame. So I think I will have to
go to the parent frame first?? IS that right?) Is it ok if I use the
onlcik event on the <span> ?
Yeah, sure, that sounds ok. But make sure you reference the frame
correctly, as in:
parent.mainFrame.getElementsByTagName("table") etc

>2- You said: "If you're only targetting IE, then exhange innerHTML to
innerText"
Well, it's a way of doing it more efficient in IE. But for both
browsers, innerHTML will be fine.
BTW, the code I sent will NOT work in Netscape 4, only Netscape 6 and
up.

>3 - When my tables are generated they will have IDs like table1, table2
...This does not affect the use of
document.getElementsByTagName("table"); does it??
No, it will function correctly no matter the attributes.


/Robert

Hi Robert,

WOW!! Many thanks for your help and sample code. This has a great
incentive for me to learn more about Javascript. Some of these concepts
you presented here are still not entirely clear to me. So could you
please elaborate a bit more on these questions:

1 - You are using the window.onload =3D function (). In my case I will
have to use a <span> on a <a> tag (I will have a link at the navigation
bar at the top of the page. This is in the topFrame but my tables are in
the mainFrame. So I think I will have to go to the parent frame first??
IS that right?) Is it ok if I use the onlcik event on the <span> ?

2- You said: "If you're only targetting IE, then exhange innerHTML to
innerText"

Please could you explain the difference to me?? I am targetting IE and
Netscape.

3 - When my tables are generated they will have IDs like table1, table2
...This does not affect the use of
document.getElementsByTagName("table"); does it??

Agai many thanks for your time and effort.

Cheers,

Claudio
