Frames Problem

[Guest]

Hi.. I have several different links that pop up with frames pages I have
created on my website. They all are functioning properly except for one. I
have a link that is linked to Thomasville.com with a frame at the top fo the
page that has our store logo and link on it. When you click on the link to
the page I created it connects properly to Thomasville.com with my frame at
the top. But, when you start clicking around on their site my frame
disappears. It is the only one where this happens? Does anyone know how I can
correct this error?

It's not an error. They have set the target attributes of their links to
specificaly break out of frames. A number of sites do this as they don't
necessarily want to be shown within someone else's frameset. In some cases,
companies have sued over this because it can cause misrepresentation.
Essentially, there is nothing you are doing wrong in your code, they have
simply placed countermeasures in theirs to ensure they aren't seen in
frames. This cannot be over-ridden.

Hope this helps,

I was thinking that was probably the case. Thanks for your help!

I have another question. I also have some websites that will not load in
frontpage when i try to set them as an initial page. Is this also the same
type of thing?
