Hi Group,
I have 2 frames in my ASP Page. The top frame for the search screen and the bottom frame for the results. The bottom frame I've called blank.htm.
On the top screen I have a button which when clicked clears the search criteria from the text boxes. However if results were returned from a previous search, these are still displayed in the bottom frame.

How do I 'reset' the bottom frame?

TIA

My button is declared as:
<input type="button" name="btnClear" value="Clear"
onclick="btnClear_onClick()">


function btnClear_onClick()
{
document.frmsearch.surname.value = "" ;
document.frmsearch.firstname.value = "";
document.frmsearch.number.value = "" ;
document.frmsearch.addr1.value = "" ;
document.frmsearch.postcode.value = "";


}
frmsearch is the frame the button is on.

TIA

Hi Dan,
That didn't work.

<html>
<head>
</head>
<frameset rows="55%,*">
<frame name="searchtop" src="kidsearchform.asp?<%=Request.QueryString%>" scrolling="NO">
<frame name="searchbottom" src="blank.htm" scrolling="auto">
</frameset>
</html>

The above is how the page with the frames are called. The above file is called searchframe.asp

It is when I am in the frame 'searchtop' and click the button that I want 'searchbottom' to be refreshed with blank.htm.

Regards

Yes. I used:
parent.frames['searchbottom'].src = 'blank.htm'
I even tried:
parent.parent.frames['searchbottom'].src = 'blank.htm'
and with double quotes around each item

Thanks for your help..
