Hi All,

I have a frameset and am using Firefox 3 with Firebug 1.2.

I have an element with a given id, "xxx".

When I just press F12 and enter into the console $('xxx') it doesn't
find the element i.e. prints null.

If I right click > This Frame > Show only this Frame and repeat the
action above, it finds the element.

How do I address the element from the main window?

Rob
:)

This is a bug:
http://code.google.com/p/fbug/issues/detail?id=814

It should be possible to change the window context using a cd
function, which is available in the Firebug's command line.

Do you just issue the command as "cd ('frame-name')" ? And can you use
"top" etc?

I have experimented a bit with this, but haven't yet gotten it to do
what I want.

Yes, there is a few possibilities:

1) If the <iframe> element has a name attribute you can use it
directly.
<iframe name="frameName" ... />
cd(frameName);

2) If the <iframe> element has an ID you can also use it.
<iframe id="frameId" ... />
cd($("frameId").contentWindow);

3) To change the context to the top window again use:
cd(top)
