New Either call from the element itself or pass params
Ideas:

1) How does the root script know which element it is? Pass the window object in the same argument list.

2) Use the trappable events system to call the (for example) onClick event of the element.

3) Otherwise, you have to make the call from the element itself.

Wanna post pseudocode? I work in client-side JS a lot (with frames), you can email me if you want: ts under_score eliot at pacbell.net
That's her, officer! That's the woman that programmed me for evil!

New I passed params.
I'm traversing the entire window, and picking out elements with certain attributes. I fixed my problem by passing the beginning window into the (recursive) traversal function, and setting it on the element placeholder when I get one I want to keep.

                                             would scripting languages be anything with an interpreter? - (boxley) - (3) - Sept. 2, 2001, 12:29:41 AM EDT
