There are two test files test.html and test1.html:

test.html:

<html>

<script language="Javascript">

function test() {

    var el =
document.getElementById('haufeindex').document.getElementById('result');
    alert(el);
}

</script>

<body>

    <iframe src="test1.html" width="100" height="50"  border="0"
            name="haufeindex" id="haufeindex"
            >
    </iframe>

<a href="javascript: test()">click me</a>

</body>
</html>


test1.html:
<html>
<body>
<div id="result" name="result">This sucks
</div>
</body>
</html>


Inside the Javascript methode I am trying to get the DIV 'result' from
test1.html. However this is not possible because 
document.getElementById('haufeindex').document is undefined. However this should
be defined
