Navigation linkbar & frames

[RussJR]

I have a horizontal linkbar on a page with frames. When I click on a link in
my linkbar, I want the page to appear in a specific frame on the page the
linkbar is on so that the linkbar is always visible no matter where the end
user goes. Some links work and other links open in a new window. When I
view the java script of the linkbar, I find targe=_top statments. I delete
them and everything works great for a while and then the target statements
reappear. How can I get rid of these statements for good and get the desired
result? Thank you for your help!

The FP navigation components are not designed to be used with frames, as you can not set a frame
target value for a link.

Thank you very much. I have found a work around. Close FrontPage. Open the
..htm file containing the linkbar in a text editor. Remove the target
statements in the java script. Save the document. It works! Only draw-back
is that the target statements are reapplied each time I open this site in
frontpage.

FP will always reset any code that it writes whenever you open the page in FP or run Tools
Recalculate Hyperlinks, etc.
