Hi I was wondering if you could help me. I have a page with 2 frames, a mainframe and a side navigational frame. In the side frame I have a javascript menu. What I want to do is to make the linked pages go to the main frame or a newwindow and I know that in HTML to do this with AHREF all you have to do is add a target but I tried that with this piece of javascript and it wont work. I also would like to change the font of the text inside the javascript menu and I have not been able to accomplish that like I would in HTML either. I have the whole script of the side frame (below) and in blue is my failed attempts at changing the font and setting a target. Please help me.

Thanks,
Josh

Most probably, however when you post such a long message, you normally don't get a good reply. I'll take a small crack at it, though...

Your font problem is probably because you do not have that font installed on your computer.

Your second problem is because you do not need a target, instead change window.location to parent.frameName.location.

Replace onfiltered with onClick.

i replaced onFilter with OnMouseOver like it was before and I was able to fix the fading effect with that but it still isnt a link, sry.
Jona

Use <a href="#">Text</a> then.

um that really screwed it up... take a look:

http://www14.brinkster.com/rekcah/B4B/index.html

well nevermind I fixed it back but it just put it off to the right of the rest and in a normal link color and the link still didnt work...

nevermind again I figured out why it went off to the right, I accidentally deleted a line, anyways the link showed up like a normal link thats already been clicked(purple) which it shouldnt and when clicked on still didnt work.
Jona

Take off the parent part. Just use newwindow.location.href.

[J]ona
Jona
07-08-2003, 04:03 PM
Actually, I think you are trying to load it in the right frame. If so, use parent.rightFrameName.location.href instead.

so much for thinking I could do it myself... same thing happened to this one like the other one did, turned just like normal text, no link.

this is what I tried:


<tr>
<td class="tds" onmouseover="fadeImg2(1)" onmouseout="fadeImgend2(1)" parent.rightMainFrame.location.href='http://www.the.iwarp.com/downloads.html';" style="font-family:bradley hand itc; border:1px solid RED; background-color:BLACK; width:100%; text-align:center; color:RED;">Downloads</td>
</tr>

Replace, "rightFrameName" with the name of the main frame.

[J]ona

07-08-2003, 04:27 PM
didnt work...
Jona
07-08-2003, 04:29 PM
Replace "parent" with "top."
What is the name of your right frame (main frame)?

[J]ona

07-08-2003, 04:33 PM
I have a left and a right frame my left frame is called leftnav and my right main frame is called main.
Jona
07-08-2003, 04:34 PM
Then it should be: top.main.location.href

[J]ona
HackerX
07-08-2003, 04:35 PM
still didnt work.

I used this:

<tr>
<td class="tds" onmouseover="fadeImg2(1)" onmouseout="fadeImgend2(1)" top.main.location.href='http://www.the.iwarp.com/downloads.html';" style="font-family:bradley hand itc; border:1px solid RED; background-color:BLACK; width:100%; text-align:center; color:RED;">Downloads</td>
</t>
Jona
07-08-2003, 04:39 PM
If that doesn't work, then your right frame isn't named "main."
