Question with opening mutiple html documents..... 1

[FireDesigner]

Would like to know if it is possible using frames to open two seperate html documents from one link in seperate frames. So basically is it possible to have two target frames from one link? Thanks you for any advice.

use javascript to target both frames. I cant remember exactly at the mo but I am sure someone here will jump in

Function
goes in the HEAD
function dotwo(pageA,pageB)
{
(parent.frame4.location=pageA);
(parent.frame5.location=pageB);
}



LINK Code

<a href=&quot;javascript:dotwo('newpage1.html','newpage2.html')&quot;>ONE LINK changes two frames</a>

 

[FireDesigner]

in the function what do I specify as pageA and pageB?

 

[lesleint]

Nothing those are just variables that take
'newpage1.html','newpage2.html'

Basically in this script
pageA = newpage1.html
pageB = newpage2.html

I got it working great locally but when I upload it to the server and go to the URL the dotwo function appears to be MIA. The site I am working on is

http://www.aptosfire.com

if you have a chance please take a look. What I am trying to accomplish is have the links across the top open the html doc in the centerframe and the html doc in the right frame with one click. Is there something I need to do to the remote server? Thanks for your help.

I wen to the site and it seems to work fine. On on of the links it can not find the page specified but other than that I clicked &quot;Fire Prevention&quot; and it did what you asked and then I clicked home and it updated both frames again.
