Linking to nested table

How to?

[sportzen]

I have nested one table into another and I want to know how to get the links in the outer table to open in the inner table. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to WmW sportzen,

Sorry, I am making a big assumption here, but do you mean frames? With frames you can add a "target" to a link so that clicking that link brings up new content in one part of the "page" but other areas of the "page" do not change.

No, I am familiar with frames but I want to open a page within a table I have nested. If you go to my site you can see what I mean. The links (only some of them are up) are on the left side of the page and I want them to open in the center.

May the problem be that there are no table attributes?

Like:

<CENTER><TABLE BORDER=0 CELLSPACING=1 CELLPADDING=1
WIDTH=104><TR><TD VALIGN=top bgcolor="0084a5">

If the problem is table attributes then what would the source code be for the links to open up in the inner table?

Where on your homepage do you want the surfer to see what is on this page?

In the area in which begins-"be the first to visit the forum." That is the inner table.

The first thing I'd suggest is run your HTML through an HTML validator. There are some missing TD and </TD> tags, unclosed quotes and typos (such as <a/> instead of </a>) which need to be cleaned up.

I must admit I'm not clear about what you're trying to do. To me, it does sound like frames: either borderless frames or an IFRAME. Entire HTML documents don't load inside a table in another HTML document, but they do load in a frame. You could perhaps establish a set of overlapping divs and use a javascript onClick to change their visibility, but all that content would then be in one page, not in separate HTML docs.

Perhaps you can explain your goal a bit more, or show a link to a page that has the kind of functioning that you want.
