How do I change an image in one frame named "leftFrame", when another frame, "rightFrame", loads

Jean-Bernard Valentaten, Pete Ruby,
Let's say you have a function in the document of leftFrame called
changePic
function changePic()
{
//code to change pic
}
In the onUnload-handler of the documents in rightFrame you could then
do this:
<body ... onUnload='window.parent.leftFrame.changePic();'>
This would call the function changePic in leftFrame and thus change
the pic in leftFrame, when the document in rightFrame is unloaded.
Basically you can call any function and read/write any variable
through the whole frameset (even in nested framesets), by knowing
their object-path.
HTH,
Jean
