I have based my home page on frames and have managed to put in a dropdown box with a list of connected sites on it. It all works when the user selects the appropriate site but only the small frame that holds the combo box changes - not the whole browser window. Any tips on how to load the selected site into a new window ??

solo7,

You can direct any window to open up in any frame. This for opening the URL in the "top" window.

<a href=&quot;your URL&quot; target=&quot;_top&quot;>

Sorry guys,
My code doesn't use the <a href= &quot;.....&quot;>

I've used the <select onchange=&quot;.....&quot;>

so how do I incoperate your ideas on opening a new window?

code used is below:

<SELECT ONCHANGE=&quot;golinks(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value)&quot; SIZE=&quot;1&quot;>

<OPTION selected>- Select a Link -</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE=&quot; <OPTION VALUE=&quot;
</SELECT>
