I would guess that something like this should fix you up: function runBlink(idNewRow,blinker){ nrow = eval("parent.f_userView." + idNewRow); if(blinker==0) { nrow.bgColor = ""; } else { nrow.bgColor = "orange"; } } Otherwise, you cold put the runBlink() function in the f_userView page and call the function as parent.f_userView.runBlink(idNewRow,blinker); which would reduce a tiny amount of overhead on the client browser... hth Isaac Dealey Certified Advanced ColdFusion Developer www.turnkey.to 954-776-0046 ______________________________________________________________________ This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
