target="_blank" cannot open a new window

[Matt]

In the following code, page1.asp is inside the frame of main.html.
When the user click submit button in page1.asp, it will submit the form
and open a new window called page2.asp. When the user clicks submit
button on page2.asp, I expected to open a new window called page3.asp.
Unfortunately, it just open page3.asp in the same window as page2.asp, and
now page2.asp is gone.

However, if I just open page1.asp, and begins from there, it is fine.
I think this is because page1.asp is put inside the frame.

========= main.html ======================
<frameset>
<frame src="page1.asp">
</frameset>

================== page1.asp ==============

<form action="page2.asp" target="_blank">

================== page2.asp ==============

<form action="page3.asp" target="_blank">


Any workarounds?? Thanks!!
