Please help!
I'm using a frameset with 3 parts/frames inside.When an action is made in frame3 I need to change the frame source in frame 2.How can i do this using the server-side script?
 
Hi mate,

Using what server-side script?
What calls the script?
What language are you using?

You need to supply a lot more details about this to get a decent answer.

Hope this helps Wullie

well the scenario is like this... in my 3rd frame, the user is tasked to login.I check the validity of the users login in the server-side script using vbscript/asp.the checking happens when the page is submitted.when login is valid,I need to change the source file of frame2.

I only know how to target a frame using the <a> tag's target property,but i don't know how to change the source file of another frame in the server-side.
 
Why don't you try to do it with JavaScript?

Code:
parent.frames[&quot;frame name&quot;].location = &quot;new URL&quot;;
