refering to ajax loaded page

[mjunior]

Hi,

How can I refer to inputs ina a page loaded by ajax in a div from parent and vice versa?
I already tred parent.form.element and also opener.form.element with no luck..

once you are done with copying the ajax loaded content to some div, you can start refering to certain DOM object.

I´m loading the page inside a div, but I want to have access to the server side code variables on it. So I place them inside inputs (in the loaded file) and now, from parent i´m trying to reach them with no sucess by GetElementByID("inputid").
How should I refer to it?

Well, you can't access variable from server side. Maybe you can do something like :

e.g. in PHP

echo "<script>var myvar = ".$myvar_value."</script>";

then you can access myvar in your javascript application.

So there's no way to refer to inputs on the loaded page from parent?

Are you using innerHTML?

Are you using innerHTML?

Yes, and using post to open the page.

Ah. That's probably your problem. innerHTML is a non-standard property. It doesn't always play nice. Be very careful how you use it. I suggest you read this: HTML text as JS string
