Page Opening In Wrong Frame...Help?!

[Seamus M]

I inherited a website and did not set up the frames. I have a left frame, top
frame and main display frame. The links from the left and main frames open
correctly in the Main frame. However, the links from the top (banner) frame
open in the narrow left frame instead of the main. In "Page" display,
FrontPage displays all three frames but only the main frame shows a page. Can
anyone help?
Thanks,
Seamus

Your link needs to say target= whatever name is defined in the top frameset

e.g. my top level is

<frameset rows="82,*">
<noframes>
To view this document, you need a frames-compatible browser
such as Netscape 2.0 and above.
</noframes>
<frame src="heading.html" name="heading" scrolling="no"
noresize="noresize">
<frameset cols="132,*">
<frame src="sidebar.html" name="sidebar" scrolling="no"
noresize="noresize">
<frame src="index_main.html" name="index_main" scrolling="yes"
noresize="noresize">
</frameset>
</frameset>

As you can see, my mainframe is named "index_main" so I use
target="index_main"

If you click on the HTML tag, the code of each frame is displayed. Amend the
code in the heading frame to correct the target.
