: can the a frame capture the onload event of another ?
:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

you can capture the initial load of the frameset by adding an onload event
handler to the frameset tag.  however, once that first set of documents have
loaded, that event handler will not fire again.  the same holds true for
trying to poll the onload event from a document in another frame.  you can
catch the first one, but none after that.

the only way i can think of is to use the onload event handler of the
document you're trying to poll and working from that.  if the document is in
another domain, however, good luck getting that to work.

good luck,
