Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum so bare with me on the messaging! I'm teaching myself HTML and I have books on the subject to help me through but I'm running into a problem which is just fustrating. I've done several webpages using the same codes that I'm using now, only for some odd reason the page just isn't working. I'm using simple target codes in a framed page combined with codename tags for page jumps. The code(s) I was using are below:
On the "B" page codes used:
<a href="URL#codename" target="C">hyperlink</a>
On the Information page (where all the info was gathered):
<a name="codename">codename followed by info
The frame page has 4 frames, named A,B,C,and D. The above code was being used in a running list of links on the "B"page in the frame which I wanted the info to appear in the "C" frame. After inputing all the codes on the pages that required them the links did not work. Not only was the info not transfered to the "C" frame, but I also received an error saying the page (and there were 15+ URLs and links) could not be found.
After trying several times to see if I just did this incorrectly, and rechecking the codes I finally gave up and just decided to do seperate pages instead of doing the #codename. So my codes changed to the simple:
<a href="URL" target="C">hyperlink</a>
to make the info appear in the "C" frame, and it still is not working. When the link is clicked it pops up a new page (as if the target was "Target="_top" " and states that the page cannot be found. I've check the URL and it is a page that I myself created that I want to link... can anyone tell me why these simple codes are not working!?!?!
Thank you!

If you want to see the page I'm trying to do the links on and what is happening here is the URL:

Please note that in the page so far are only links using the second code line:
<a href="URL" Target="C">hyperlink</a>
On the "B" page codes used:
<a href="URL#codename" target="C">hyperlink</a>
