Frame Problem

Hi All,
Heres what I'm doing: I have a Perl script that creates HTML/javascript pages. This script is located in one frame. In the loading of one of the pages that goes through Perl, I want to change the frame source of another frame. I have a function that does this (heres the code) :
window.parent.frames[1].src = "/tempdirectory/filename.txt";

When I run this application the function gets hit fine but the second frame doesnt show anything. Is there some sort of refresh that I need to apply? Basically I have a blank.htm file that resides in the frame until this piece of code gets hit that will replace it. The first frame with the application is set to 100% and the second frame is set to *. I've set it up this way because I want to print to a printer directly (mimic it anyway) and so I have the HTML page in the second screen with the <OBJECT> tag being used along with using the ExecWB method. If anyone can see what I'm doing wrong or have left out I's greatly appreciate any response(s). Thanks.

Hey,
Forget that part of the question, figured it out. I was wondering though if I have to access a frame from another frame can I somehow use the insertAdjacentText method to insert into the associated document? I have this code :
window.parent.frames['display']
... but I want to add something like this :
var WebBrowser = '<OBJECT ID="WebBrowser1" WIDTH=0 HEIGHT=0 CLASSID="CLSID:8856F961-340A-11D0-A96B-00C04FD705A2"></OBJECT>';

upper_object = window.parent.frames['display'];
upper_object.body.insertAdjacentHTML('beforeend', WebBrowser);
Is there a solution to this? If so I'd appreciate any help.

with javascript
you can document write stuff to a frame
FRAMESTUFFID.document.write(TextStr)
and make the TextStr the code you want

Eric,
Thanks for the reply. I have found the solution online afterwards. If you would like you can close this posting altogether. I've posted a new one with just the solution I found to print "directly" to a printer without the print dialog box or using just the currently displayed HTML page. Since that one covers the whole issue this one can be deleted and that one could be closed for future reference. Thanks a lot.
