PRB: Data Source Control Must Reside in Frame of Bound Element

ID: Q176788

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Internet Explorer (Programming) versions 4.0, 4.01, 5.0
Internet Client SDK, versions 4.0, 4.01

SYMPTOMS

A control that is bound to a data source control does not display any data. The data source and the control are located in different frames.

CAUSE

Cross-frame databinding is not supported in Internet Explorer version 4.0.

RESOLUTION

Place the data source control in the same frame as those controls that use it. A separate data source control must be used in each frame that contains elements that bind to data.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
