FP2000 Java target frames help

[Dieselboy]

Hey,
I have a java applet running in a little website i'm trying to design, and
when a user clicks on something in the
menu, I need for it to open in a certain frame, ie: the main one, (bottom
middle
right aka rbottom) I've searched extensively,and only found how to set
target frames for buttons
etc.. but nothing for the java applet. Even if I right click in the source
frame and go to frame properties (any properties) I make the target frame
rbottom, it still opens a whole new page.. grrr Could anyone clarify?
for example, the fourth line from the bottom, The aboutus.htm is a link in
the java applet (for *about us*), but I need for it to open in a certain
frame, is there some
code i'm missing here simply?

thanks

You'll need Java to view properly

You need to check with the author of the applet to see if it design to
support target frame value.

Also, be aware the many Windows XP, IE6 and NS6 and up user will not be able
to access your Java Applet since they do not have a Java Virtual Machine
(JVM) installed by default, so they will not be able to navigate your
website.

wow, thanks for the tip. When will JVM be available on IE6? when it becomes
standard I guess?
thanks

 

[Thomas A. Rowe]

Because of Sun, it may never be available unless users know and choose to go
to the Sun web site and download and the Sun JVM.

Note: Some users do have it, depending on when they install Windows XP or IE
6 or SP1. However it is something that you should not count on users having,
instead look at using JavaScript functions, which in most case will allow
links to work, even if JavaScript has been disabled.
