[Javascript] Firefox - write to form boxes

[skyscanner at eircom.net (SkyScanner)]

Thanks - I guess I was just getting lazy writing 'minimum code'. My
Javascript book (QUE Using JavaScript by Paul McFedries) says it is OK to do
things like that, and IE is quite happy, but obviously FF is not impressed.

    Because your code is simply wrong.

    "parent.map.F7"? What does it means? "parent" object doesn't have
a property called "map". This code will never work.

    Try this:

window.parent.frames['map'].document.forms['F7'].elements['box1'].value='bla
bla';

  Amplexos.
