I know its not CF and apologise in advance,
I,ve got a hidden frame,
there is a timeout set and it will make a http request to check for a new
instance of data,
If there is a new instance,
I want to write the new data to a table in the visible frame,
I can do this successfully,
----code-----
function writeNewData(){
// assign long reference to shorter var name
var delay = 1400, blinks = 3;
var theTable = parent.f_userView.myTable
// append new row to the end of the table
var newRow = theTable.insertRow(theTable.rows[0])
// give the row its own ID
newRow.id = newRow.uniqueID
// declare cell variable
var newCell
// an inserted row has no cells, so insert the cells
newCell = newRow.insertCell(0)
// give this cell its own id
newCell.id = newCell.uniqueID
// display the row's id as the cell text
newCell.innerText = "a date and time string"
// re-use cell var for second cell insertion
newCell = newRow.insertCell(1)
newCell.id = newCell.uniqueID
newCell.innerText = "new reservoir data"
for ( var i = 1; i < blinks; i++ ){
setTimeout("runBlink(" + newRow.id + "," + 0 + ")", delay *
i - ( delay / 2 ) );
setTimeout("runBlink(" + newRow.id + "," + 1 + ")", (delay *
i) );
}
}
function runBlink(idNewRow,blinker){
if(blinker){idNewRow.bgColor = ""}else{idNewRow.bgColor = "orange"}
}
but when I then try to blink the new row I just get a error in bottom left
corner in the status bar (error on page),
It works fine within a single document window,
any help would be greatly appreciated,
j
