There may be a timing issue involved.  Seems like there are two windows
at play here, and the grandparent in question may not be ready (it may
still be loading) even though your page is already done (your onPageLoad
has fired.)

JavaScript is pretty compartmentalized, so there may be security
constraints that prevent you from realizing whether another window has
loaded (that's been true for IE, anyway.)

One workaround might be to fire off a setTimeout on page load, where the
timeout would call the Zoom, which predicated on the assumption that all
pages finish loading by the time the timeout expires.  Another option is
to have the grandparent do the actual ZoomToView upon its reaching
loaded state.

Hi,

I am running this code:

<script type="text/javascript">

            function onPageLoad()

            {

                parent.parent.ZoomToView(<%=x %>, <%=y %>, 110000,
true);

            }

            </script>

</head>

<body class="AppFrame" onload="onPageLoad()">

And getting this error:

Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object doesn't support this property or
method

mapFrame.ZoomToView(x,y,scale,refresh); on Line 213 of ajaxviewer.aspx

I can run this fine from a link on the same page and point it to the
scriptFrame but when I try to run the onPageLoad function it fails.

Any ideas on what I might be doing wrong?
