I have two nested frame definitions. The first "art1f.htm" defines two
frames
<frameset cols="130,*">
<frame name="left" src="nieuws/logonavi.htm" frameborder="no"
noresize marginheight=0 marginwidth=0 scrolling="off">
<frame name="right" src="art2f.htm" frameborder="no"
scrolling=auto>
The logonavi frame contains the navbar, "art2f.htm" is itself a frame
definition
frameset cols="*,155" bordercolor="#FFFFFF">
<frame name="middle" src="agenda/article.htm" frameborder="no" noresize>
<frame name="contents" src="agenda/contents.HTM" frameborder="no"
MARGINHEIGHT=0 noresize>
</frameset>
The contents.htm is positioned on the right. In it is a list of articles.
One can choose one.
In this way I created a 3 collumn structure. On the left navbar for
navigation through the
site, in the middle a data field, on the right a contents field, with
the contents of the
different parts of the site.
Check it out at http://www.cultimo.nl and go to "nieuws" or "Agenda". Or
for the
englishspeaking community it is easier to go directly to
http://www.tref.nl/groningen/cultimo/nieuws/49_116f.htm
to see a working example. The names I use for the frame deffinitions are
slightly different,
but I translated them from Dutch.
Normally I choose to place an article in the "middle" frame. Lets say <a
href="article.htm"
target="middle">link text</a> But, when the article contains big photo's
I choose to place
it in the parent frame (in this case the "right" frame from the first
framedefinition). The
syntax would be <a href="article.htm" target="_parent">link text</a>
This works fine in my N2 and N3 (as well as in MSIE). But not in N4.04 on
the mac. Somehow
it reads the target="_parent" as a target="_top": It uses the whole page
to display the
article. It doesn't use a new page (which happens when one misspells the
word "_parent" or
when one uses capitals, or when one uses "_blank")
I don't know if it has got something to do with the N version I got, or
with the fact that
I'm a mac user (ppc). I've got the impression that one has to name the
specific target, but
I'm not sure.
Thanks
