Frames??

[Guest]

I'm new to this - maybe approaching this wrong?? I built a main page with
10 or so related pages. I want to use the same page (format, muenu buttons,
etc) to diplay the content of the related pages. I want to change only the
page (or frame) content depending on the hyperlink selected. Do i have to
create 10 different pages, set all the hyperlinks, etc., or can the frame
content be based purely on the selected link.

Maybe there's a tool I haven't found??? Thanx!!

You can use Frames, but not really recommended. FP has a DWT (dynamic web
template) that you could use. Also there is page includes

I usually use server side includes:

You set up your *frameset* which is an html page that contains the set of
'frames' that hold the other pages, so they all display on the same screen,
then you have to create your hyperlinks and set the "target" to the frame
you want the linked page(s) to open in . THe "target" option is in the
Hyperlinks properties box when you create, or edit a hyperlink.
