i am trying to create a hyperlink from one page to a page that is inside the
frame of a frames page. any help would be appreciated.

Is the page you are trying to link from also inside the frameset, if so then you just need to
specific the frame target value (name of frame you want the link to open in).

i have a starting Index.htm page that is the first page visitors go to. then
from there they can link to any one of a number of pages but all those i have
set up to be inside a frame of a main page that has 3 frames... two frames
to always be the same so as to load pages faster that contain graphics and
all the main links. and then one page inside that changes every time that
contains our office info. i've been doing alot of reaserch and i might just
end up using inline frames and have the clients deal with the page taking
that extra few seconds to load every time and then people can aslo favorite
the precise page. still i would like to know if there is a way to do it with
the frames.
thanks.

one big reason why i want to use frames and just have the URL the same
thruought the whole navigation is that i want the body that keeps changing to
scroll and always see the two other frames that contain links and our company
banner etc.
we have a primary page that is a cool snappy page with a few links there too
and want all those to link over to the second page but have the body frame
change.

once again if i can figure out how to get inline frames to work so the body
scrolls inside that then i'll have it load....

um... couldn't i just have two index pages for every page? like this link
from page one takes me to page two and that has a frame with the body inside
and then i have another page with another body inside and so on... would
still take time to load up but then when i change the banner or add a page
with another link i won't hafta change 20 some odd pages

The easiest approach is to make index.htm your frameset, otherwise you will either have to create a
frameset for each page or use JavaScript to create dynamic frameset which will automatically load
link in the frameset.

Also keep in mind that by using a frameset you make it difficult for users to add specific pages to
their favorites, as well as search engines will index the pages outside of the frameset, etc.

I use one frameset with three frames inside it.

index.html is like this
<frameset rows="75,*">

<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" target="index_main">
<frame src="index_main.html" name="index_main" scrolling="yes"
noresize="noresize" target="_top">
</frameset>

</frameset>

When you want to link to a frame you use the name , e.g. "heading" "sidebar"
"index_main"
For example, in sidebar I have a link <a href="about.html"
target="index_main">.
about.html then opens in the frame named "index_main"

ok i guess i'm not explaining myself well
i know how to link within a frameset and all that...
what i want to link is this... from any page anywhere... have a hyperlink
to take me to a frameset page and open up any given page inside one of the
frames... i have 3 frames set up... two of those frames are planed to always
look the same as a banner and side bar... the third frame is to have data
that scrolls inside. several different pages are linked from the banner to
open inside the body. i want to hyperlink from anywhere in the outside web
to this body but a different body for each outside hyperlink... a hyperlink
that first opens the frameset page and then opens up any given page inside
the body frame... i hope this was a little more clear.

You will have create that frameset dynamically using JavaScript. Do a search JavaScript Dynamic
Frameset scripts. A better option that your users would appreciate is to design your web site to not
use frames.

this is a site for an architectural firm...
i have viewed many other architecture firms websites and they are even layed
out worse. they may look cool and all with rollovers that cause things to
move and stuff but you can't even hit the back arrow at all and the
favoriting doesn't actually favorite a specific page... the point here is to
help viewers to navigate and this solves just that. and my boss wants the
first screen because of our logo and all that.
i will try java script now for the link and hope i get something. thanks

one last thing that i must ask,
say i were to design this slightly different.
i was wondering ... if i use inline frames to hold the banner and sidebar so
that each new data page is it's own... the body.... can i get it to scroll
and keep the inline frames frozen in place so i can always see them and watch
the body scroll... the body not being a frame or inline frame at all... can i
get (i guess tables or something) to scroll independant of other items.
thanks,
