[Javascript] how to pass values to a frame

[Chris Tifer]

Just do this:

parent.frames["frameName"].location.href = "/pagename.html?param=newValue"

It works off the same premise of what I gave earlier. The main thing I'm
trying to point out to you is the ability to target specific frames through
the frames collection.
