Question about Javascript and HTML frame redirection

[Anthony P]

Hello Everyone,

I have an HTML page that has two frames. When the user clicks the
'logout' link, I need to redirect the frames to a single page. So, in
other words, both frames will disappear and will be replaced by just a
single, unframed page.

How can this be done? I'm sure it'd be through Javascript but I don't
really know where to start.

Thanks!
Anthony

try:
top.document.location.href="http://www.example.com/single.html";

window.top.location = ....

is more reliable and not subject to the SOP. However,

window.parent.location = ...

suffices here.

Please trim your quotes.
