I’ve been using one of the plugins (Responds to Parent) of Sean  
Treadway to make Ajax uploads on my website, and it was all ok. But  
yesterday I tried to modify it so I could use it to render some  
partials in my parent frame from a link I placed inside a visible  
iframe on the page and I achieved nothing. The problem was that when I  
used the link\_to tag for my link, the parent rendered the partial ok  
but the iframe got erased (about:blank), and if used the  
link\_to\_remote tag for my link, iframe didn’t get erased, the action  
in my controller was correctly executed but the javascript didn’t seem  
to be sent to the parent because nothing was rendered.  
Ok, today I just wanted to start again with all of this and I removed  
the Responds to Parent plugin to install it again, but my surprise  
came when I saw that the page of Sean Treadway seemed to be down.  
So, does anybody know where could I find the Responds to Parent  
plugin, or could anybody send it to me?  
And if anybody knows how to solve my problem with the parent rendering  
from an iframe link it would be a lifesaver for me.

Here are the links for the Sean Treadway page and the plugin:

Thanks for advance.

The page seems to have some problems but they are solving it. I  
finally found the plugin via Google CodeSearch ([http://www.google.com/](http://www.google.com/)  
codesearch) asking for “respond to parent sean treadway”, for example  
in this url:

[http://www.google.com/codesearch?hl=en&q=show:hsNTEoIvRi4:8Gu1oaqIheQ&sa=N&ct=rdp&cs\_p=http://sean.treadway.info&cs\_f=svn/plugins/responds\_to\_parent/lib](http://www.google.com/codesearch?hl=en&q=show:hsNTEoIvRi4:8Gu1oaqIheQ&sa=N&ct=rdp&cs_p=http://sean.treadway.info&cs_f=svn/plugins/responds_to_parent/lib)

and it works 😉
