Frames handling
Hi everyone, My question about Win32::IE::Mechanize is: I have web pages with frames in them that I want to access to (its really IFRAME-tag, if its important). I want to be in the main page, but to access and fill the form in the IFRAME (witch is in a different URL). For example, Israel 144 page at www.bezeq.co.il . The only solution I got is to follow the frame URL, but then it shows the frame as the main page on all over the screen, and that's not good enough. Thanks, Mishael

Re: Frames handling
Hi,

I have not found a way to access the content of I?FRAME elements in the InternetExplorer automation object. The only reference I found implied that this is a security feature.

Re: Frames handling
Hi,
The normal way of dealing with frames is just to
$ie->follow_link( tag => 'frame', name => 'framename' );

This might fail due to "smart" javascript stuff that reloads the frame in its frameset context.
