Links and Frames

O

Oldbiggles

I am trying to create a framed webpage using Frontpage 2003. All works well
until I try and create a link to a page away from my website (as yet
unpublished, just sitting in my computer) - What happens is that the new
page occupies the main frame of my page, rather than the entire page - How
can I tell the linked page to use the entire page space or open a new tab or
page in the browser. It seems to be the same with IE, Maxthon or Firefox
browsers


Oldbiggles in Perth, Western Australia - The regional capital that''''s
furterest in the world from any other capital city (country or region). But
it''''s a great place to live

Hi to you, oldbiggles, in sunny Perth. I travelled there via the I-P in late
September 2009, and I'd tend to agree with your sign-off

Anyway, it's a long time since I used frames but I think you need to use
target=

I found this example
http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_frames.asp
and worked on it

Adding target="_blank" will open the other page (another.html) in a new
window.

These are the files

frametest.html
<html>
<!-- frametest.html -->
<frameset cols="120,*">
<frame src="left.html">
<frame src="main.html">
</frameset>
</html>

left.html
<html>
<head>
<!-- left.html -->
</head>
<body>
A left frame
</body>
</html>

main.html
<html>
<head>
<!-- main.html -->
</head>
<body>
<a href ="another.html">Another HTML in this frame</a><br>
<a href ="another.html" target ="_blank">Another HTML in new window</a><br>
</body>
</html>

another.html
<html>
<head>
<!-- another.html -->
</head>
<body>
Another HTML
</body>
</html>

<frame src="frame/new_page_2.htm" scrolling="yes" name="menu"

</frameset>

<noframes>
<body topmargin="1" leftmargin="1" style="border: 7 groove #800080">
<p align="center"><img border="0" src="favicon.bmp" width="64"
