Working with Javascript in a multiple frameset environment? Place common
functions in an external script file, call the script file in the head of
the top frameset, then reference each Javascript function as

top.functionName()

Saves time on loading, too, as the script file is only called once, not
repeatedly for each page in the frameset.
