To overcome the problem of 'orphaned pages' from a framed site showing up in search engine results in isolation, it is suggested that such pages are forced back into their parent frame set. ok.
BUT - will Google have time to spider the full content of individual pages before they are forced into their parent frame set?

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE = "javascript">
<!--
function ReFrame() {
var myUrl = top.location.href;
var i = myUrl.indexOf('?');
var PageToLoad = null;

if (i > 0) {
PageToLoad = myUrl.substring(i + 1, myUrl.length);
top.middle.location = PageToLoad;
}

}
//-->
</SCRIPT>

Jan Wright, welcome to WebmasterWorld!

Google doesn't execute JS, so don't worry. The content of the pages Google can find will be indexed. But nevertheless I'd suggest you to go for a non-frame solution in the future to prevent problems of being spidered.

Yes, of course, I had forgotten that Google doesn't do Javascript! Doh.

Many thanks
