Is this sort of like linking to s spot in a page? Like when you do the
<a name=&quot;jump&quot;>this spot</a>

???

what I mean is do I have to have a name for it and have the crosshatch in front of it?

 

[AkshunMon]

here is what I did
<a href=pagename.html target=otherpage.html>link name</a>

but it won't work.

well all your frames have names which have been defined in your frameset like &quot;DT&quot; said -- you have to target the name of the frame you want your link opened in.

Usually leftfram, topframe, mainframe, bottomframe are the most common type of frame names.

Its kinda similar to anchors which is what you are referring to but in anchors your links are built <a href=&quot;#anchorname&quot;>go to my anchor</a> where in a frame you have a normal href but you assign a target value

you are forgetting the quotation marks! href=&quot;pagename.html&quot; target=&quot;target&quot;

target is not a page it is a name there is no .html after otherpage.html -- look in your frameset and get the frame names they are not the filenames of the pages.
