Error: uncaught exception: Permission denied to get property HTMLDocument.getElements

newdoc = "";
function Create(){
newdoc = window.open('sURL_here', true);
}
function Change(){
alert(newdoc.document.getElementsByName("top").value);
}


when I call the change function I get this error: Error: uncaught exception: Permission denied to get property HTMLDocument.getElementsByName

how can I fix this, get around it???

thanks

Is sURL in the same domain as your page? Cross-site scripted interaction is generally not allowed. Plus, getElementsByName returns a collection, not an element -- use newdoc.document.getElementsByName("top")[0].value or similar.
