netcracker Posted June 29, 2006 Author Share Posted June 29, 2006 thx for the swift response <body onLoad="document.frames['iframe_name'].scrollTo(10,700)">...<iframe name="iframe_name" id="iframe_name" title="iframe_name" src="http://www.xxx.ro/xxx.php" ></iframe> it gives an error: "Access is denied." it is quite frustrating since it shouldn't be this hard...also tried:[code]document.frames['convertorvalutar'].contents.scrollBy(10,700) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aspnetguy Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 The Access denied is what I expected you'd get. You cannot do anything to the document inside the iframe if it is not from the same domain. That obviously include scrolling. Sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aspnetguy Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 If you do let me know because if you do you will have bypassed the borwsers builtin functionality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netcracker Posted June 30, 2006 Author Share Posted June 30, 2006 well, i'm not trying to crack or hack IE or any other browser, but the easyest sollution i've come up with is an iframe that opens a local page which eventualy opens the desired external page, also in an iframe... the first iframe has any height, while the 2nd iframe is taller, and so i manage to scroll to any desired position. it is no big deal... quite childish actually, but it does the job and that's just what i'm looking for hope i make any sense...
