We have a nav bar in a top frame and a content frame - a button on the nav
bar has the following:-
<a href="#"
onClick="parent.content.location='http://127.0.0.1/website/servlet/ControlSe
rvlet?cmd=tocart&index=0';">
It goes off to the servlet which forwards the request to the appropriate
page which shows the shopping cart in the content frame.
I have already posted my problem which is to refresh two dynamic frames
(content supplied from the database) at the same time - one of which is the
calling frame - ie it has to refresh itself and another frame.
John.
