I have a problem, how do I open a frameset then at the same time either through the same link or hidden javascript from that link change one of the frame content pages. I don't want to have to create new html framed pages that have the exact jigsaw of frames previously saved.
The structure is typical of a site.
index1.html - no frames, this is where the nav links need to be it's a typical entry page ...click here to enter type of entry
main_frameset.html - this holds 3 html frames left(logo), body(content), and top(nav/ads)
But I only have ONE frameset(main_frameset.html) and I'd really like to keep it that way, so I'm left with the problem now.....how do I open main_frameset and instead of the saved file coming up in the body(content) area making a new file load in from the index1.html page?
I want to reduce the number of html files on this site and this will cut them in half.

Check out the scheme in Message #21 of our Handy, Generic Javascript [webmasterworld.com] reference thread. This script was created for handling search engine arrivals to orphaned frame pages -- but I'll bet you can use the approach to accomplish your aims as well.
If you set up the master frameset page and added the code to each child page -- you could write your links directly to the child page you want loaded, and the script would place it into the parent frameset.
