Sorry it looks like its the target object thats generating the error message 
because  the target document  is not ready

I seem to have found a workaround by adding a dummy timeout

    function onloadevent
    {
            // build target document using document.write
            window.frames[0].document().open
           window.frames[0].document.write(string)
            window.frames[0].document.close()
            // wait a bit
             x=setTimeout("resumeonload()",0)
    }

    function resumeonload()
    {
            // create an object document reference

       }
