However, when when using the back button this gives weird behavior: often other parts then the main content go '1 page back'.
Now I'm redesigning the thing with nice&clean html&css, since it's a really simple website.
But what I want to know is: is there a possible quick-fix so that only the content gets back 1 page in the history?
Here is the code for the frameset and 1 contentpage; pay special attention to the Javascript:
FRAMESET
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-style-type" content="text/css"; charset="iso-8859-1">
<title>test</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/test.css" type="text/css">
</head>
<frameset rows="8%,9%,76%,7%">
<frame src=logo.html name="logo" frameborder="no" framespacing="0">
<frame src=content.html name="contenttable" frameborder="no" framespacing="0">
<frameset cols="13%,87%">
<frameset rows="70%,30%">
<frame src=subcontent_1.html name="sub" frameborder="no" framespacing="0">
<frame src=blanc.html name="blanc" frameborder="no" framespacing="0">
</frameset>
<frame src=intro.html name="field" frameborder="no" framespacing="0">
</frameset>
<frame src=company.html name="companydata" frameborder="no" framespacing="0" scrolling="no">
</frameset><noframes>
Browser cannot use frames
</noframes>
</html>
CONTENT PAGE
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-style-type" content="text/css"; charset="iso-8859-1">
<title>test</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="test2.css" type="text/css">
<script language="JavaScript">
function 4links(link1, link2,link3, link4)
{
parent.frames['subcontent'].location.href = link1;
parent.frames['field'].location.href = link2;
parent.frames['contenttable'].location.href = link3;
parent.frames['companydata'].location.href = link4;
}</script>
</head>
<TABLE HEIGHT=100% WIDTH=100% BORDER=0>
<TR ALIGN=LEFT VALIGN=Top CLASS="H1" HEIGHT=5%>

Thanks in advance for any tips,

I know you hate me for saying it, but I speak from experience as I ran frames myself years ago, nothing but trouble in the end, it's just not worth it.
I did find in time, it is possible to build anything without frames, and just as well.
I think one problem you smack into with the Back Button is that it depends on how the browser handles History -- and that's a moving target, expecially when multiple frames have been changed with a javascript function. You just can't get consistency,
