Hi all,

I am currently using the statement

var ev= window.mainZoneFrameA.event?window.mainZoneFrameA.event:e  

to grab a that frame in order to get the mouse coordinates when clicked in that frame.  This works fine in IE7 but is not the case in FireFox.  I was wondering if anyone knew how to make this a viable statement in FireFox.

What is mainZoneFrameA?

if you use

var ev=window.event, does it work in IE'?

Thanks.

The reason I am using window.mainZoneFrameA is that I want to get a reference to that iFrame called mainZoneFrameA and do some manipulation in this frame.

var ev=window.event does work in IE but it does not serve the purpose I am looking for. I need it to be based on mainZoneFrameA and also work in both IE and Firefox.

Try:

var ev = (window.mainZoneFrameA.event) ? window.mainZoneFrameA.event : (window.mainZoneFrameA.window.event) ? window.mainZoneFrameA.window.event : e;

I found out that IE uses the id attribute to get the element while Mozilla was using the name attribute.  So I just had to do id="mainZoneFrameA" name="mainZoneFrameA" for it to work.
