calling php from another php

Anon

sorry, the confusing question.
Now i explain it in this way:
I have a frameset with more than 2 frames, let\'s say 2.
Frame No.1 is a ticker page which shows rolling real time messages. It has a
php data called 1.php.
Frame No.2 is a main page which shows different senarios (like in the portal,
user can enter chat, forum, shopping center...) and each such senario is
called by different php data. it is controlled by a menu in javascript
somewhere in the frameset. Let\'s say when the user enter the shopping center
senario and shop.php is loaded accordingly. At this time, i would like to
make the ticker page in Frame No.1 automatically show the news of the top 10
shopping articels of shopping center. I should refresh the 1.php in shop.php.
I hope it is clear with the question.

                      Thanks for the help!

Hi,
I haven't tested this.It should work..try

Write this function in the begining of each page or save it in some file and include that file in each page.
function loadPage($page)
{
echo "<SCRIPT language=\"javascript\">\n";
echo "function loadNew(){\n";
echo "parent.frame1.location=\"$page\"\n";
echo "}"\n";
echo "</SCRIPT>\n";
}

Call this function in the head<HEAD></HEAD> part of the page and you need to pass the page you want to display in the first frame as an argument.
On body(<BODY>) onLoad() event call the javascript function loadNew()

i.e <BODY onLoad="loadNew()">

Hope this works

Cheers
