Hi

Say i have a list of ten recipe links on a standard html page, and i want each recipe, when the link is clicked on, to open up in a frameset window (mainFrame). What is the code for this? I want to use the same frameset for each recipe
Ive never worked with frames before and i cant figure it out. i can target individual frames from within the frameset, but not from an outside link.

Many thanks for any help
Chris

I did that when one of my sites used frames. Do a search for 'dynamic frameset.' Think the js code I used was from Netscape. It wrote the frameset on the fly and inserted the specified pages in each frame. You can fiddle it to work with a number of frames in a set and make as many as you'd like 'dynamic.'
