Frames Firefox open in new tab

Hi there,
I've made a site with Dreamweaver using a frameset with a side Navigation frame and a main content frame. This works fine in Safari but in Firefox when you click a link in the Nav frame, the link opens in a new tab instead of opening in the main content frame within the frameset. As I said this works without a hitch in Safari. Is there a trick I'm missing? Can anyone help?

Cheers

Welcome to WebmasterWorld.

Is there a trick I'm missing?

Probably not what you want to hear, but not using framesets anymore is the trick you need.

That said, using both "name" and "id" attributes should work.

Thanks,
I did suspect that the frameset was a thing of the past, but on this occasion I thought it solved the site's design needs. I'll have a look at 'name' and 'id' or maybe go back to the drawing board.
