I get an error when trying...[JS frames related]

[Dalziel]

I have a dropdown search box, but I need to set the target frame for it as "_main", any ideas? Here's the box code:



<script>
function ssite()

{

var url = document.sform.site.options[document.sform.site.selectedIndex].value;

url = url + document.sform.sturm.value;

top.window.location.href = url;

}

var isNav = (navigator.appName.indexOf("Netscape") !=-1);

if (isNav)

{

document.captureEvents(Event.KEYPRESS);

}

document.onkeypress = handlerKP;

function handlerKP(e)

{

kp = (isNav) ? e.which : event.keyCode

if (kp==13) ssite()

}
</script>


<form name="sform" style="text-align: center" onsubmit="return false">

<input tpye="text" name="sturm">

<select name="site" size="1">

Change this line

top.window.location.href = url;

to

top.frames['_main'].location.href = url;

If you were wondering what _main is anyone (since most people just use _blank and _top with _ at the beginning) it's the target used in IE for the search bar (click the search button) to target from the bar to the main window :D
