getting rid of the IFRAME

[inonzuk]

Hello dear javascripts wizards,

I hope I will make myself clear enough....

I have an "index.html" file which have an IFRAME and a button (outside
the IFRAME). pressing the button loads a "game.php" page in the IFRAME.
The "game.php" moves through couple of php pages using clickable
elements.

When arriving to the last php page of the game, I have to show it on
the main screen and not the IFRAME (i.e. load a new page on top of the
first "index.html" screen).

the last page is loaded with this command:
echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV='REFRESH' content='0;
url=http://localhost/lastpage.php?sc=$user_points'> ";

but the page is loaded INSIDE the IFRAME. How do I load it instead of
my current screen? (which is still the "index.html" file, the php pages
where only presented in the IFRAME of the "index.html" file.)

thanks in advance for you help....

Use this meta tag also (or post them both as http headers, which ever...)
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Window-target" CONTENT="_top">

That ought to set the target frame so that it opens in the top and not
inside the iframe.

Hi,

thanks for the answer but it still did not work:
instead of this line:
echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV='refresh' content='0;
url=http://localhost/_index_nobuttons.php?sc=$user_points'> ";

I wrote these lines:
echo "<META HTTP-EQUIV='Window-target' CONTENT='_top'>";
echo "<meta HTTP-EQUIV='refresh' content='0;
url=http://localhost/_index_nobuttons.php?sc=$user_points'> ";

but still got the same results => the _index_nobuttons.php was
displayed inside the IFRAME.

any ideas?
