[Dynapi-Help] Running a DynLayer in one frame from another frame ?

[Lars V. N. <LV...@hv...>]

Y'all,

I'm trying to show/hide a popup layer in one frame, while controlling it =
by events fired in another frame.
I've tested the example shown in =
http://dynapi.sourceforge.net/doccenter/index.php?DynDocuments with =
succes.

However, the same setup doesn't work in my (huge) real project.

The main difference from the example is that I'm using DynAPI heavily in =
the target frame by itself.
So it might be a question of having several instances of DynAPI =
conflicting, but I'm unsure whether this can be/is the case.

The immidiate error occurs immidiately when I - in my "menu" frame =
page/document - attempt to attach my map frame page/document as a =
DynDocument object.

 var mapFrameDoc;
 DynAPI.onLoad =3D function () {
  mapFrameDoc =3D new DynDocument(parent.map);
  DynAPI.addChild(mapFrameDoc); // <-- yields an error: "An object is =
required" (or something of that sort)
  //...
}

I've tested whether the "mapFrameDoc" variable is defined, and it seems =
to be.

I've tried a work-around by defining the popup layer in the map =
page/document, and just attaching to it from the menu page/document, but =
that yields an error that indicates that the attached object isn't =
recognized as a DynLayer (I can use setHTML and setVisible methods on =
it). And I can't find any examples to support me in this approach :-(

Have anyone tried to do this ?
Can anyone shed some light on possible instance conflicts ?

Using 2.5.7

TIA
