On my left frame, I used the correct (I'm pretty sure it's correct) HTML so that when you click on a link, the page shows up on the right side. However, when I click on the links, it pops up in a new window instead. Is my HTML wrong or something?

<STYLE type="text/css"><!--
A:link{color:"#FFFFFF";text-decoration: none}
A:visited{color:"FFFFFF";text-decoration: none}
A:active{color:"#FFFFFF";text-decoration:underline overline}
A:hover{color:"#FFFFFF";text-decoration:underline overline}
--></STYLE>
<font color="#FFFFFF" font size="3" font face="Century Gothic">

you need to end your head with </head> and start your body with <body>. all you content should not be in <head> and </head>.

what is the exact name of the right frame, found on your frameset page? the target value must exactly match that name, and it is case sensitive.

if in doubt, could you post your frameset code?

the links are being targeted to rightside, but the frame is named right. the frame's name and the target have to match exactly.
