Frames Redirection

[Earl Partridge]

FP2000, Windows XP
I have a frames page with Banner, Contents & Main.
The Banner frame contains a form for getting user input.
The Main frame is used to display input from an Access database.
The Contents frame is used to display a list of users online.

When data is entered in the text box on the Banner frame and Submit
pressed, the form routes to an Update page for adding the input data
to the database. This is working correctly.

After updating the database, that Update page Redirects to the source name
of
the Main frame. However, the Contents frame, instead of the Main frame
receives the data from the database.

The Frameset page is an HTM file, the 3 frames are all .ASP files.

You need to refresh the page that is used to display the new database results
ASP does not support Frameset Redirects

I tried both examples but apparently I'm missing something still, not too
familiar with this code. Here's the code I used:
url = http://www.myweb.com/chat/chatbox.asp
response.write("<vbscript>" & vbCrLf)
response.write("parent.main.location.replace(' " & url & " ');")
response.write(vbCrLf & "</vbscript>")

I want to return to the "Main" frame (source is chatbox.asp), but with this
code the text from the response write lines is written to the "Contents"
frame.
What am I not understanding? Do I replace "parent" with an actual name?
Same with "location"?

It writes the code because that is what you coded
You want client side script (javascript), not server side script (vbscript) to be written by the ASP code

Try
<%
url = "http://www.myweb.com/chat/chatbox.asp/"
response.write("<script>" & vbCrLf)
response.write("parent.main.location.replace('" & url & "');")
response.write(vbCrLf & "</script>")
%>

Great, that works, getting the data in the "Main" frame, but for some reason
the "Contents" frame gets erased. Guess I'll play around and see if similar
code will refresh or keep the text in that frame.
Thanks.

I have not been able to keep the text in that Contents frame.
Any thoughts?
