I am trying to do an I-frames layout but even though I've got the frames I can't get my links to open up in the actual frame. I tried your tutorial and all I got was the page opening in a new window when I actually wanted it to open in the I-frame. Can anyone help me?

Did you name your iframe?
(i.e. <iframe src="abc.html" name="some_frame_name"></iframe>)

If you did, then target your links like

<a href="xyz.html" target="some_frame_name">text</a>

if this doesn't work, please paste your coding here, or provide a URL.

p.s. this should've gone in the Frames forum, not HTML

Are your links on the inside or outside of the frame?

If it's on the inside...*scratches head*
Outside, then see above post.
