[thelist] Javascript question

[Peter-Paul Koch]

>Hello, I get an error of the type

Scripts in pages that come from one web server may not read out certain 
properties (like the location.href) of pages that come from another web 
server.

For more info, see http://www.xs4all.nl/~ppk/js/index.html?framebust.html, 
where I attempt (unsuccesfully) to write a generic frame busting script, a 
script that sees if you are in someone else's frameset and if you are, jumps 
out.

You cannot get top.location.href , it is not allowed. Can't be helped. Maybe 
you can set a variable in the top frame and read it out in the other frames, 
but I wouldn't be surprised if even that is not allowed in certain browsers.
