Resurrecting an old thread.. It seems that this solution does not return events on objects within frames in webpages eg . if you go to www.andersondirect.com - the page is composed of three frames called as topFrame main and address. Now when I click on say 'Select a Vehicle' which is within main - I do not get any Onclick event. I also do not get an OnMousemove event if I move the mouse. However, I do get on Mousemove event on a tag called as frameset (which is part of the top page). How does one get events from the frames then? As always thanks a lot.
