Frameset issue

oceansapart

Hi All,

I have added a page to my site which uses a frameset , i would like to avoid rebuilding the whole site and as such I need to come up with a solution for the navigation.

The scenario is that on the frameset page , I need the links in the top frame to cause the whole page to refresh (not a new window) and show the linked page as normal (i.e not only in the top frame). Anyone familar with a way to acheive this ?

Cheers!

I'm a little confused - can you post a link?

Is it just the inner frame itself you want to refresh and not the whole frameset?

nogihno

can you use the target="" in the href tags?

or the top.frames["frame"].location.href="page"; in javascript

Webmonkey, the link is http://81.17.241.45/search2.html

Nogihno, target "" causes a new window(tab to open)

Yes that was what I was getting onto but just confused with exactly what needed

target="_self" will load the current frame only rather than the whole frame.

Edit - i see your problem.

Try

target = "_blank"
target = "_parent"
target = "_self"
target = "_top" <-
