Question ID: 327414 
here's the scenario.  i have an html page with a frameset with 2
frames.  the first frame i have control of and the second frame comes
from another source.  there is a javascript function in that second
frame that is doing something undesirable.  so i want to do one of the
following two hacks: code to either (1) disable javascript only in the
second frame or (2) have html that i do control modify the javascript
function in the second frame presumably on the onload event so that i
can remove the offending code before it is executed.

Hi code_blazer,
I would like to test my HTML page ( Posted Below ) with some "Offensive Code"
Can you give me an example URL that has some "Offensive Code"?
Thanks.

<html>

<script language="JavaScript">
function pop()
{
	w0 = "";
	alert("I'm First!");
}
function pop()
{
	alert("I'm Second!");
}
</script>
<body onload="pop()">
hi
</body>
</html>

it really doesn't matter what is inside the offending javascript
function but here's an example url that you asked for:

JavaScript Definitive Guide
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1565923928

view source to find the offending function xs_writeResults() (since it
tries to access the parent document which is not an amazon document):

function xs_writeResults()
{
if (xs_bv > 0) {
var xs_showMessage = "Thanks for your answer.";
var xs_html = "";
parent.document.getElementById('quizFrame').innerHTML = xs_html;
} // xs_bv
}

I viewed the source code of:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1565923928
on Two Browsers and could not find the function xs_writeresults().

anyway, since Amazon's page is interfering with the Parent Frame's page,
why can't you rename the function on the Parent Frame's page?

> could not find the function xs_writeresults().

that's interesting.  for sanity checking, the 'r' is capitalized in
the function name in the off chance you are doing a case sensitive
search.  perhaps this part of the html returned is personalized.

> why can't you rename the function on the Parent Frame's page?

as far as i know, javascript functions defined in the parent frame are
not available to the child page.
