Has anyone had an experience with the AOL/Compuserve?WalMart Connect tricks?

I have a maps site and consequently large .gifs or .jpgs get served so I keep an eye out for bandwidth theft.

Goung through my logs today I found a mile long URL that basically is the result of a search on WalMart Connect which is apparently run bt Compuserve.

It shows my page in their frame ... BUT it domehow keeps my Google ads or my own ads from running on the page.

I've written to WalMart and to Compuserve .. but who knows. Maybe keep a watch out if you haven't seen it already.

Apologies for any typos, I am scheduked for a cataract operation in about 10 days.)

You can use a 'break out of frames' javascript that will solve that problem (for most users who haven't disabled js)

I posted an example in this thread [webmasterworld.com] msg#22.

Note:

<SCRIPT language="JavaScript">

was OK back in 2001, but now you should use:

<script type="text/javascript">
