Posted: Wed Aug 26, 2009 7:54 am Linking to a page
Ok here is my question. Currently when I link to a specific page on my website that would normally come up in the Main frame, it pulls up the page without any of the frames around it. Here is an example... http://www.candeocandle.com/EnglishGarden.html
Is there a way to link to a specific page like this one, and still get the frames to come up around it?

I'm using target="Main" in my links on my website and that works fine. I'm talking about when you want to link to a specific page on your website externally. For example say I want to post a link to my website on this forum. but I don't just want it to go to my main page, I want it to go to a specific page on my site. If I just type in <a href="http://www.candeocandle.com/EnglishGarden.html">EnglishGarden</a> it goes to that page but drops all the frames. I've tried using target="Main" for this purpose as well but it didn't work. I would like to be able to post a link to my site or e-mail someone a link that goes to the exact page I'm referencing without sending them to the main page and then having to tell them where to navigate to. I'm not sure if that's possible?

That's the bad part of using frames. Unless there is a way with javascript it can't be done. You'll have to link to the home page.
