How do I create a framebuster javascript from a subframe?

[smithaa02]

So my structure is like this:

Superframe.php (a frameset page)
toptenpercent.php (the content of the first frame)
bottomninetypercent.php (the content of the second frame)

What I would like to do is to create a javascript link on toptenpercent.php that when clicked only shows bottomninetypercent.php (that page in essence busts out of the frameset)

Anybody know how to do this with javascript?

Why in particular do you want to do it with JavaScript? Isn't it easier just to set the href target to _top?
This way it would also work for those that block JavaScript. I personally don't like sites that don't work properly without JavaScript enabled and usually will leave the site as soon as it doesn't work properly.

With JavaScript you would want to set top.document.location.href to your desired URL.

The link is in the subframe toptenpercent.php ... so I have to to _top, it will go to the main frameset page Superframe.php, which I don't want.

I want basically a sub frame to go to a sibling frame...possible, even without javascript?

[Dijkgraaf]

Then you want parent.document.location.href

[smithaa02]

That will climb to the parent, which is I believe how I want to start...but then I have to climb back down to find the sibling...that's the trick. How does one frame reference a sibling frame with javasript, assuming they both share the same frameset parent page.

Have you tried (deprecated but should work) target="_blank"? Or if you want it to replace the whole page without a new window/tab, target="_top" should work. It shouldn't "go to" superframe, it should replace it - unless you've named it "_top". :-)

You'll need to use try/catch, if someone else put your site in a frame you won't have permission to access top.window.

try {var a = top.window.location.href;}
catch (err)
{
 top.window.location = '';
}
