how is the content for the bottom frame is lost when
you make it invisble? Add these lines to you page to
see what happens:
<button
onclick="document.getElementById('div1').style.display='block'">
DIV1 show
</button>
<button onclick="document.getElementById('div1').style.display='none'">
DIV1 hide
</button>
<button
onclick="document.getElementById('div2').style.display='block'">
DIV2 show
</button>
<button onclick="document.getElementById('div2').style.display='none'">
DIV2 hide
</button>
By the way, display:none doesn't make an element -invisible-.
See the 2nd paragraph for the value none at:

Hi!
I've posted at this URL a page that clearly shows a problem (not so
big,
after all) that I found today:
http://inmabb.criba.edu.ar/~fg/test-display-none.htm
Two iframes, one inside a table inside a div, the other one just inside
a
div.
I want to be able to toggle the visibility (in fact, the
".style.display"
property) of the divs, without losing the content of the iframes.
When I play with the buttons above the frames, using IE 5.5, this is
what I
see: once the bottom iframe has been made invisible, its content seems
to be
lost. The other iframe (the one without the table) behaves in the
expected
way.
Obviously I could rewrite the page code, and use only divs instead of
this
table, but anyway I can't resist asking the question: is there any
reasonable explanation for this behavior? Just another bug?
Thanks for your feedback, and please reply also to my address,
fgomez at criba.edu.ar.
