I have a set of frames that form on

[Oceanic7777]

I have a set of frames that form one page. The TOP frame has letters of the alphabet. If a user clicks on the letter A, the LEFT frame goes to "A.html". Is there anyway that I can make the MainContent frame refresh to a page when the user clicks on the letter of her choice?

I've tried using http refresh in the LEFT frame so that when the user opens "A.html" in the LEFT frame, the MainContent frame will refresh to "A2.html" for example.

I have tried to define the target in the http refresh string but I'm not sure if this is possible. If so, I may be using the wrong code.

Another option would be linking the letters in the TOP frame to two different pages. If a user clicks on the letter A, the LEFT frame will display A.html and the MainContent Frame will display A2.html.

Is any of this possible?

The LEFT frame is used for a short description or set of matches under the letter A. The MainContent frame will contain expanded information (contained in A2.html, etc... Family Address, email, phone, etc....)

This is for a Family People directory.

You can do it this way :
in top frame page

<Script language=&quot;javascript&quot;>
  function ShowPage(letter) {
    parent.LEFT.location.href = letter + &quot;.htm&quot;;
    parent.MAIN.location.href = letter + &quot;2.htm&quot;;
  }
</script>
<A Href=&quot;#&quot; onclick=&quot;ShowPage('A');&quot;>A</A>
<A Href=&quot;#&quot; onclick=&quot;ShowPage('B');&quot;>B</A>
<A Href=&quot;#&quot; onclick=&quot;ShowPage('C');&quot;>C</A>

For this to work, change the name of LEFT and MAIN frames to the real names you use. Water is not bad as long as it stays out human body ;-)
