I had the same configuration and in the end I kept the top frame and
combined the bottom two into a single frame. I think you will find that
combining the bottom two works best for .NET since you will need to post
back. Calling the right frame from the left frame just does not make a lot
of sense. At least for me.

Then I moved most of the nav buttons to the top of the lower frame instead
of in the upper frame. It just made more sense with the .NET postbacks.

If you still want to call one frame from another, I think you will find that
you will go back to HTML controls and javascript.

If you try the server.transfer concept, you will loose the session state and
that really goes against .NET. I guess this was the reason I moved the nav
bottons to the primary (lower) frame.

Jim,

Thanks for that. In the end I did the following :-
Response.Write( "<script
language='javascript'>window.parent.frames('MainFrame').location.href='mypag
e.aspx';</script>" );

That seems to work perfectly.

Thanks.

Andy
