Targeting a frame

[BeanBob]

Right, I have a link. I know how to target a particular frame, I know how to target a different window so that the link opens remotely as it were.

What I need to know is how to target this link to a frame which is in a remote window.

Any ideas?

If you (or your code) opened the window, then you named it. Refer to it by name.

I think that'll work, but I'm not sure -- you're right at the bleeding edge of my knowledge on frames "technology".

Cheers,


Edward

<div onclick=&quot;...&quot;>click here</div>

The window I'm opening the link in, how do I know what it's called? I didn't open it from anywhere, it's just the main window.

Thanks

I assume that means that your links are opening in a new window. new windows have a name of 'child' as default as well as any other name should you chose to name them. other than that to target a frame you just att targe=&quot;framename&quot; to your link <a> tag.
