Frame Problem

[anyday]

hey guys i guess i post the most here :0.

im having a prob with a frame in IE.

I followed an example posted by dale in the ie.au3 thread for getting a frame but it doesnt seem to be working on my side.

here is is the website source

<!-- frames -->
<frameset rows="90,*">

 <frame src="nav.html"
           name="nav"
           frameborder="0"
           scrolling="Auto"
           noresize
           marginwidth="10"
           marginheight="6">
    <frame src="body.html"
           name="main"
           frameborder="0"
           scrolling="Auto"
           noresize
           marginwidth="10"
           marginheight="10">
</frameset><noframes></noframes>

and here is my code

$oFrame = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oIE, "main")
            $html = _IEBodyReadHtml($oFrame)
            Run ("notepad.exe")
            WinWaitActive("Untitled - Notepad")
            Send ($html)

here is the error im getting

Line 1136 (ie.au3)

If IsObj($o_object.document) Then

If ^ ERROR

Error: The requested action with this object has failed.

if anyone can advise on what im doing wrong that would be great.

How did you get the source you show?

If it is from a right-click view source you may be seeing the source of a frame instead of the top-level document.

Make certain you use the menu bar View Source.

Your code looks good.

The weird thing about this is i can do a _IEClickLinkByText($oFrame) and this works fine but the readhtml doesnt seem to get it

if it's being too troublesome to work in frames, you see the source of each frame there, nav.html and body.html, you CAN navigate directly to either of those, and interact with them instead of arguing with frames.

thats whats weird, if i goto body.html it is a different page then what im looking at

but yet the source says body.html is the page its going to

make sure you're going to body.html in the right directory. it would be in the same directory as the page with the frames.

whats weird is as i browse through website the url never changes

its always www.website.com no matter where i go but i know that its loading pages from diff directories

well if you're navigating within the frames, it loads the new pages to target frames, rather than changing the url that you're browsing.
