Frames

Hello,

Will try to explain as acurate as I can and what I want to do...

I created a frame page

2 column
1 column = 1 row
2nd column = 3 row

Not very good design, sorry...
________________

|_top______|
| content |
menu |_________|
______|bottom____|

In the first column, it is named ( menu )

In the second column, the top row named ( top_content ) will never change as
I added some logos.

The second row in the second column is my content one ( named content ) and
this one will change all the time depending on the link I will click on.

The bottom row named ( bottom_content ) will be changing depending on the
link I click on from the menu frame. I created some html files that will
open fine in this frame.

My problem is when a file is opening in the bottom_content frame, I would
like to click on a new link and display the html file in the content frame
( 2nd row ). I can't seem to get it working and it always open a new
browser window. Is there a code I can use to force an external html file to
open in a specific frame or is there a diferent way to do it???

It is the first time I create a web site with 4 frames and I can't get it
working.

Thanks for your time...

If I understand this correctly clicking a link from a the menu
displays new links in the bottom_content frame and you want links
clicked from that frame to display files in named_content frame.
If so and you have saved your frames correctly it sound like you have
just selected the wrong target forthe link - edit your link properties
and select target, the names of all your frames should be listed just
click on named_content and the page should appear in that frame.
