Try using the following:

CODE

<A HREF="images.html" target=Images>Pictures</A>

For all I know, it might work.

Its better to place quotations on every attribute so as to conform to the standard now... Using lower caps maybe more of a help... So maybe you can put something like

CODE

CODE

<a href="images.html" target="IMAGE">Pictures</a>

Maybe this would solve the problem, and also try to get your html pages validated with the standard to be able to work on all browser...

like hype said you really should use quotations around ALL attributes, and i believe the standard is they should all be in lower case as well.

also from what i hear and personal preference regular frames are a bad a bad idea. I think it's a better idea to put the dynamic part(s) of the page within an iframe and using css positioning or just regular HTML for the rest of the page

I would also advice to try to switch from html frames to a xhtml + css based design... here at the trap seventeen forums we can help make the transition smoother for you =D

It's not actually that hard to swicth from frames to server side includes in php (for example), and they work the same way (more or less hehe) and you can even have the css display the items as if it was a frame... like this page

notice how the content stays absolutely positioned in the browser window, and yet I was not using frames there, its just pure xhtml and css!

Need Help With Frames - (6)

Hey everyone, I need help with frames. Say I click a button/link, I want it to appear in a certain
box of the template. My friend just made a template from a tutorial, and wants me to make a site for
him. With some knowledge of HTML, I ended up doing mostly everything, except for the framing.
Because I'm going to use a shoutcast radio, I don't want the page to refresh everytime they
visit a new link, otherwise the radio will restart for them. Can someone please give me a tag so if
I click a button/link, it will appear in a certain area? Thanks....

Frames And Scrolling - (2)

I am wondering if it is possible to have a frameset with frames on the top, left and right of the
main content. The frames would all be non scrollable except for the 'main content' (center
frame). The problem i am having is that when the 'main content' needs to scroll, it places
the scroll bar between the 'main content' frame and the 'right frame'. I need the
scrollbar to be at the right of the 'right frame' so that the 'right frame' is not
visually apart from the 'main content' frame. Is it possible to somehow posi...

I have a link with goes: result 1 In results.php I create my frames and use 'if' queries

the page the way I want it, but I don't want a new window to open. If i put target="_self",
then the page loads in the same window, but the page 'results.php' ap...
