Hyperlinks and frames
We enjoy the "benefits" of a web site where the main navigation bar is in the "top" frame.... Actual content is displayed in the "other" frame.
Problem is that any external hyperlink, included in an email, that points to any content page, brings up that page without the top frame, that is without the navigation bar.
I am sure that we are not the first ones to be confronted with that kind of problem and any simple idea to resolve this would be a great help.
Besides the obvious and drastic solution: "get rid of the frames" I was, vaguely and conceptually, thinking of a solution that would include the following:
- create a "blank" secondary home page that would include the top frame (navigation bar)
- use a simple redirect (or refresh) command in the "other" frame that would point to the "content" page
As I can't just create one of these for every hyperlink, I would need to pass the "targeted" address through a variable .... This may be very simple but I don't have a clue as to how to do it ... It could just as well be impossible ....
Any helpful suggestion will be appreciated

Hiya,
sorry for the delay in reply, my isp is having difficulties. Im connected using Netscape Online at the moment, grrr.
Woo, this ones a doozy. I have written so many scripts to break out of frames, but no-ones wanted to put them back in afterwards!
I know how I would handle it. My links would look like this
Code:<a href="navbar.php?page=contacts">Contact link</a>
(urk, can't think of any JS! eep!)
Code:<? echo $page;?>

I guess this would take more than I can chew on by myself and will pass your response to our web development team ... the ones that buit the web site with frames in the first place.
Thanks
