                           |
( frameBlue )        | ( frameYellow )
                           |
                           |
                           |

         ( frameRed )

frameYellow has a form named frm1 and a textarea called textArea1

how does a button on the frameBlue update the value in the textArea1

I tried the following, all failed.

onClick="top.frameYellow.document.frm1.textArea1.value='X'"

onClick="top.frameYellow.window.document.frm1.textArea1.value='X'"

onClick="parent.frameYellow.document.frm1.textArea1.value='X'"
