html frame

Frank · Aug 3, 2003

Hi,

how do I switch of frames?
I have 2 frames on a page. When I click a specific reference I want that
page to load in the same browserwindow without frames. How? What happens now
is that the page is loaded in one of the frames.

Thanx

Frank

Oh dear: http://david.us-lot.org/www/frames/

browserwindow without frames.

That has nothing to do with JavaScript.

This seems to work:

<script language="JavaScript"></script>

What?? You don't need Javascript to do this. Just add 'target="_top"' to the
link.

<A href="blah.html" target="_top">

(Although as David mentioned, you're probably better off without frames)

Maybe this works but I would have to put it in every href. The javascript I
only have to put once in the called html file.

There's this clever little thing called search and replace.

The javascript I only have to put once in the called html file.

And not have it work for those users who turn off JS, and to have it load a
page twice for at least some of those who do.

Not using frames in the first place is easier of course.

Solution, put in the <head>:

<base target="_top">
