window.opener works, but opener.document fails -- FRAMES seems to cause it. Works fine w/o frames!

When in frames you need to reference the top (outermost) frameset 
document object, this is where the true opener is. Your javascript is 
running in one of the frames which is really in a sub-document.
do this in frames:
top.window.opener
