The JS is
parent.top.document.getElementById('level').innerH TML="whatever";

IE complains "... is null or not an object". Works fine in Firefox.
Any insights will be appreciated.

I shudda mentioned the frame structure. It's:

<FRAME SRC="top.php" NAME="top" SCROLLING="no">
<FRAME SRC="main.php" NAME="main">

parent.top contains redundancy.

You are mixing a DOM standard (W3C DOM Level 2) and a proprietary
implementation (innerHTML) which is known to be error-prone if untested.
Depending on the IE version, document.getElementById() may not even be
supported.

Furthermore, if this is to be cross-frame, the reference to the target
frame is missing:

... window.top.frames["otherframe"].document ...

> Works fine in Firefox.

That is highly unlikely. Firefox logs errors in the error console,
probably you will find the error message there.
