Hi,

I am using frames to create my site. Once the user successfully logs in through the login page, they are taken to the page with frames. I have a menu bar type form on the left and main details section in the middle. This is where most processing is done and new forms are opened.

I am disconnecting users if they are idle for a certain amount of time. Each page therefore checking to see if the user has been idle and if they are, displays the login form again.

What I need to be able to do however is open this new login page fully in the browser, not just in the current frame. If it opens in the current frame and they login correctly, the frame "reopens" in the main section of the original frame - meaning the users can see it all twice!

Is there a way to open the form within the browser not within the frame?? I am using response.redirect at the moment.

Thanks
jan
