I have the following code that I am using on several pages...

// create array of all quiz pages in the entire quiz
var quiz = new Array()
quiz[0] = new quizPage("pos_home.htm")
quiz[1] = new quizPage("pos_q1.htm")
quiz[2] = new quizPage("pos_q2.htm")
quiz[3] = new quizPage("pos_q3.htm")
quiz[4] = new quizPage("pos_q4.htm")
quiz[5] = new quizPage("pos_q5.htm")
quiz[6] = new quizPage("pos_q6.htm")
quiz[7] = new quizPage("pos_q7.htm")
quiz = new quizPage("pos_q8.htm")
quiz[9] = new quizPage("pos_q9.htm")
quiz[10] = new quizPage("pos_q10.htm")
quiz[11] = new quizPage("pos_sum.htm")
quiz[12] = new quizPage("../../quiz_menu.htm")

// navigate to next quiz page in sequence
function goNext() {
  var currPage, i
  for (i=0; i<(quiz.length-1); i++)
  {
   if (parent.main.location.href.indexOf(quiz[i].src) != -1)
        {
            if(i + 2 == quiz.length)
            {
                parent.window.location.href = quiz[quiz.length-1].src;
            }
            else
            {
                parent.main.location.href = quiz[i+1].src
                break
            }
        }
  }
}

What it does is provide navigation through a quiz. My problem is that this works perfectly everywhere I use it except in one area of my site. The code I posted above is the troublesome code. The only difference between this code and the code that qorks is the htm file names in the array.

The error I receive is

parent.main.location.href is null or not an object

Thoughts?

Clay Hess,

Can you try to find out some differences in the two palces which you are using this code. I mean is the HTML layout of these two locations.

Is the place where its not working within a frameset? And does that frameset also have a frame named 'main'?

Thanks for your suggestions. I had tried those. The good news is that I figured it out. The person who sent me these files to debug had used the reserved word 'location' as a variable.

Thanks again.
