Help Please - Frameset question

Guest · Jan 10, 2004

If have a page with a frameset set up as below:

There are 3 rows of pages displayed.

I need the navigation to be in the middle.

When I click on one of the links in the navigations, I need to be able
to dictate a new source page for the top row AND the bottom row. How
can I do this without refreshing/reloading the middle page with my
nav?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This is one of the many reasons that using frames in .NET is generally a bad
idea.
Usually you're better off partitioning logical sections of your page into
web user controls.
Here's more info:

If you must stick with frames then you'll need to use client side javascript
to accomplish your goal.

if you dont want to cause a refresh of the middle one... try using Hyperlink
and use target="framename"

that will cause it to load the link without causing postback... (hyperlink
is translated as normal a href and does not have a postback)

should sort you out...

Sounds good. But for my purposes, how can I control which user control
(at the top and bottom page) is dispayed FROM the navbar links (middle
page)?. I'd like to do this without passing values through the url?

I didn't see an example of this in the docs.
