Hi there everyone. Have a weird problem I hope someone can help me out with. Google was less than helpful this time, but its a weird thing to search for.

From what I could tell, everything was working correctly, BUT i received a phone call stating it didn't.

I have a site: SITE A that contains a small Iframe with a quick search form: Site B. (Two different domain names.)

The problem: When someone clicks on of the links in the site B iframe, nothing happens. It doesn't think. It doesn't TRY to think. Its as if nothing happens. NOTHING.

Regular links from site A to site B work fine (as long as they are not in the iframe.)

I have the targets set correctly to _parent (and even tried _top) but that makes no difference.

Unfortunately, I MUST use the iframe because one server is Linux and the other is Windows.

Does anyone have any ideas of whats causing this?

Try setting target="_blank"

I generally reccomend against iframes.
