Simple Navigation Design Question

[MikeHGA79]

Ok...I think this might be an easy one.

Here's the situation, I have a simple website design, with a top frame and main frame, we'll call that frameset "alpha". My header and links are all located in the top frame of alpha. I want those to stay put in the top frame, and any new links that open up should be opened up in the main frame of alpha below.

All of that is working fine, here is the kink, one of the pages I'm linking to has the same frameset, with a top and a main, we'll call that "beta". I'd like it to function within itself as well, how can I target the links in the top from of beta, to open in the main frame of beta?

Make sense?

Thanks!

Then you have the same config. but within the Alpha Bottom?

If it was displayed within another frame box, then wouldn't you use the code

<a href"code.file" TARGET="target the frame">Link Name</a><BR> So you would name them all differently, but in the Alpha Bottom frame, you would display the beta frames.

- Page
-- Alpha Top (name = atop)
-- Alpha Main (name = amain)
---- Beta Top (name = btop)
---- Beta Main (name = bmain)

- When you place a link in Alpha Top that has to open in Alpha Main, you have to specify Target Frame as amain, and
- when you place a link in Beta Top that has to open in Beta Main, you have to specify Target Frame as bmain

Hope, this will help you a bit.
