Browse All Topicsok I have a site that uses frames and I want to be able to link from another site to a page inside the first site.
Is it possible to link along the lines of
<a href="http://www.blah.com?
and in this way override the default contents of the 'main' frame so that it will contain number2.htm
thanks

Sorry perhaps I didn't make it clear enough Xrusha, the page I am linking to is the page that contains the frames...
so I am at page A, I want to link to page B, and put page C into the frame called 'main' in page B.
The default page in the frame 'main' is page D
Mike, that looks to me like it might work from within the page, but page A is a completely separate website

ah, I see... you want to create the frameset on the fly using the query string to tell the browser which page it should show in the frame "main".
you should probably read

Try this parent.frame[n].location.h ref = "number2.htm", here n is 0-n-1, number of frames, check which is that frame you wonder
