I have an html page that has 2 frames ("input" and "result"). In the "input"
frame, there is a text box and a button. User enters an id in the text box,
then click on the button. In the click event, I would like to call an
asp.net page, and passing in the text box value as a query string parameter
(http://mysite/mypage.aspx?id=x) and display the result in the "result"
frame. I couldn't find a way to do it. Please give me some pointer on how to
accomplish this.

Thanks very much in advance.
 
simple html 101.

<form target="result" action="mypage.asp">
<input type=text name="x">
<input type=submit value="press">
</form>

In a frameset, on the client side, you can refer to the other frames in
JavaScript by referring to the parent window and its frames Collection. So,
you can manipulate any other frame from a given frame with something like:

window.parent.frames("FrameName") or window.parent.frames(0)

and work with the document that way. For example, you could do what you're
saying by:

window.parent.frames("FrameName").location = "/someURL.aspx?this=that";

You can do it on the client side by using Javascript.
On your button click event you can call a JScript function that will d
something like this

window.parent.result.location.href = "resultspage.aspx?"
