finding an element in the current document's parent

[rob::digitalburn]

Hi,

I'm trying to use MM's findObj function to get the reference to an object
which is in the current document's parent, and I'm being a bit thick and
can't work out what to put in the second argument to the function. Any
ideas?

thanks
Rob

What exactly do you mean by "current document's parent"?

I mean the document in the window within which the current document is
nested. In other words, I want a script belonging to a page within an iframe
to be able to access an element in the page which contains the iframe. Make
sense? :)

I'm just using -

lyr=window.parent.document.getElementById("thing") ;

now, which seems to work well enough (for my high specific purpose, anyway),
but if anyone else has any suggestions to do it in a more neat or robust
manner, I'd appreciate it.
