how to escape from frameset?

I seem to have painted myself into a corner.
Here is my index.htm
=======================================
<HTML>
<FRAMESET COLS="20%,*" BORDER=3>
<FRAME NAME="Frame1" SCROLLING=AUTO SRC="left01.htm">
<FRAME NAME="Frame2" SCROLLING=AUTO SRC="right01.htm">
</FRAMESET>
</HTML>
=======================================
(if you want to look: http://dunjas.com/index.htm)
I use the left side for a sequence of menus.
I use the right side to display what a menu selects.

Everything was good until I tried to print a recipe
for bread pudding that was in the right window. It
did not print. So I decided to try something that I
have seen on other sites. It is a "PRINTABLE COPY"
window. Only thing, I am trapped. How can I
temporarily escape the FRAMESET stuff?

Tnx,
Charles

I'm sure others are going to tell you this, too, ad nauseum, but dump the
frames. And with your page, reworking would be easy. -2 basic columns,
100% height - easy... :)

Here's a similar example with the addition of a top "logo":

(uh, PS: It's _not_ a "beta" page; that's just the name of the folder.)

When looking at a framed page, you can almost always view the
frame you want by right-click (or on Mac, control click) then
"open frame in new window/tab". Then you can then print easily.
You could give this instruction to your visitors.
