iframes

[ashers]

I've got 2 iframes in on a page, one of them contains links, how do I set it up so when you click on a link the page opens in the other iframe.

Thanks

My condolences.
Lose frames and free yourself from many headaches.

Working from memory, something like:



function newPage(URL){
window.open(URL, "contentFrame");
}

<iframe id="menuFrame" src=....
<iframe id="contentFrame" ...


...should be close.

Something like

document.getElementById("contentFrame").src=newURL;

may work also....

I'm pretty sure you could make good use of the target attribute (http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/present/frames.html#h-16.3).
