No. You are confusing frameset with frame here. By pointing to "_parent", you are indicating that it should load in the enclosing frame, ie, Frame 1. There is no way that I know of to get the effect you're referring to without putting a frameset within a frame, ie: <FRAMESET ROWS="50,*"> <FRAME SRC="menu.html"> <FRAME SRC="welcome.html"> </FRAMESET> file menu.html: <FRAMESET COLS="*,500"> <FRAME SRC="getindex.html"> <FRAME SRC="logo.gif"> </FRAMESET> -------------------------------------------------------- [ Jordan Reiter ] [ mailto:jreiter@mail.slc.edu ] [ "You can't just say, 'I don't want to get involved.' ] [ The universe got you involved." --Hal Lipset, P.I. ] --------------------------------------------------------
