access a frame content

[cody7]

Hi,

I have 2 frame in my page, i will call my left frame as "left_frame" and my right frame as "right_frame"

ok here is my question

here is my code for left.php that resides in the left_frame

<?
$mainUrl = "what will be the correct way of calling the RIGHT FRAME"; // need help in this line
$mainHtml = file_get_contents($mainUrl);
echo "$mainHtml";
?>

my objective here is to print whatever the content of my right_frame, my problem is how can i call my right_frame???...

Thanks for any help or information you can give me...

To get the file contents of the right frame, you'll need to know the specific URL the right frame is using and then use that URL in $mainURL (right click and view source on the parent frame will reveal the children URLs).

Im sorry for the unclear post.

here is my clarification.

We still have our left_frame and right_frame

my right_frame is displaying my new emails lets take (Yahoo mail)

we all know that if we use the URL of my right_frame to my left_frame yahoo will redirect us to its login page.

ok what i want to do is that is it possible to print or display the content of the right_frame from the left_frame.

If i where to explain it in other way. I want to have a command in my left_frame that it will view the source of my right_frame?

is this possible?

<a onclick="parent.name_of_right_frame.print();"
  href="#">print right frame</a>

something like this should work

with php you can't do this
