What you are trying to do is writing to an object in the current DOM. IFRAME and FRAME objects load a new browser. You have to use the DOM traversal methods to get the contents of the window. However, you may come across security issues, as what you are trying to do is writing to a browser frame that has another root url than yours. There are lots of tutorials on the internet about this subject and every beginners book on Javascript tells you how to get the body-object of the frame window. When you have it, you can treat it the same way you would using the normal body object (provided you have been granted access) However, why would you do such a thing? The frame and iframes are meant for loading other pages with other sources. If you want to write your own pages (i.e., write content some object, say, a div, or even the body of the current page), you can do the same. If you want to combine the two techniques, you good thing of swapping (i.e., use a div for innerHTML, and use the iframe for external sources, and show/hide the one you want on any given moment). However, it appears to me as a very bad design choice.
