Help!!

I have a parent window that opens a child, when I close the child (via a button) , it calls a function. I want that function to submit a form on my parent window. But the form exists on a frame called "Search" on the parent window. I cant seem to reference to the frame correctly, heres what I have so far:

window.opener.window.frames.item("search")

I get an error.

(I want the 2nd frame, if that helps)
Can anyone help??

Thanks in advance
 
if you've named that frame "search", then you should be able to do this:

window.opener.parent.top.search;

or this:

window.opener.parent.top.frames[1]; =========================================================
while (!succeed) try();
