Load a frame onClick

No you dont have to make a function but if you want your code to make more sence to people reading it then you should and also if you wanted to make it disapear then a finction would be easiest.
try something like
give the frame a name like "Frame1"
then maybe
<input type="button" onClick="frame1.visibility=visible">
but that might not do exactly what you want
But with that you will have to set the visibility on the frames to hidden

I'm presuming you already have a frameset document, and that each pane of the document already has a name (say, Pane01, Pane02, Pane03, etc.).
In that case, a typical URL would refer to that target window:
(If there is no existing Pane02, the browser usually pops a new window and names it "Pane02".)
Now, doing that with a button isn't a whole lot different.
Try

to whatever you need, of course. No functions!
Good luck!
