Hi all. I am working on a very large training site, which is almost complete, but I have one issue I cannot see how to resolve. We use a frameset, with the menu in oneframe and theinfo in another - fairly standard. But: I want to use an effect like the a:active pseudo, and keep the menu choice selected in the active state while the user is interacting with the main frame.

At the moment, as soon as the user clicks a map or popup link in the main frame the active link in the menu disappears (expected, but not desirable). Does anyone have any idea's on how I can achieve what I am trying to do? Any assistance greatly appreciated!!

With frames you are effectively displaying two (or more) webpages at once. Therefore client-side scripts (of any sort) would not work. I would have to imagine that you'd need to remove the frames in order to have your menu identify which page is being displayed.
