This one is tricky. I have a main page with a menu that linke to another page with frames. When I finish what I have to do in that new page with frames I must return to the main page. I can't use he getURL("somepage","mainFrame") because it puts the main page in the main frame and it's bad. I can't use _blank because I want the main page to open in the same browserwindow. I can't use _self because it puts the main page in the bottom frame. I can't use javascript:history.go(-1) because it goes back just one page. Any ideas?

Why don't you open the second page in a new window? You could then simply close it.

You can use "_top" - in your case it's the same as "_parent" but "_parent" is the parent frame of the current frame.
