Frame re-sizing in Netscape 6

[batch]

I am trying to get frame re-sizing to work in Netscape 6, using the following JavaScript function:

function bannerframesize()
{
if (!document.all)
{top.document.getElementById("cars_r_set").rows="40,*"}
else
{top.document.all.cars_r_set.rows="40,*"}
}

The document.all method works for IE4 & IE5/5.5 and the document.getElementById method works with IE5.5 (I've proved this, although in the above function the document.all would take precedence with IE5/5.5), but it does not work with Netscape 6 (I can read the rows property value using this method, I just can't write to it). I've tried using both top.document.... and parent.document....

My JavaScript Bible (by Danny Goodman) states that the getElementById should work with Netscape 6 and that one can read AND write the <FRAMESET> rows property in Netscape 6.

Any suggestions?

I'm just curious, but how did you make your post be a "help me" post?

Sorry, don't understand your question. Could you explain?

The moderators here just bump up questions, hoping someone will come answer them. Anyway, you can try:

top.document.getElementById("cars_r_set").setAttribute("rows","40,*");

Tried your suggestion, but exactly the same results as before (i.e. works with IE5.5 but not NN6).

Anyone else got any other ideas?

Have now been informed (by Danny Goodman's site) that the problem I've encountered is a bug in both NN6 & NN6.1

Apparently NN won't resize nested frames (from JavaScript at least).

I read somewhere that Netscape (with NN6) might make in roads back against IE. I just can't see it myself - I've encountered so many problems.
