Hello.

I have an iframe which uses a meta refresh every 30 seconds. Inside the iframe, it has a javascript which shows a popup.

BUT

the popup shows in the iframe, not the parent window.

How can I make the popup load in the parent window/main window from the iframe?

Thanks!

SOLVED: I simply used AJAX instead of an iframe! Thanks.

The popup window is literally opening inside of the iframe? As in window.open() opens inside the iframe? I didn't even think that was possible...

Maybe one of these will help you:

Sorry, I wasn't that specific:

Basically, I have this "post it note" script: from http://www.javascrip...t2/postit.shtml
That is in my iframe.

What I want to do is when the page on my iframe loads <body onload=...>, the post it note will load OUTSIDE of the iframe (in the main window).

Thanks for your speedy response!

speedy = coincidence :yodasearch:

Put all of the JavaScript/CSS provided in that tutorial in the parent window (outside of the iframe), and then simply call the showit() function like so:
