Hi all!

I have a script that collects a username and password which doesn't
seem to work if the user is a hotmail/msn frame.

When they get a message on the system a notification is sent to them
with a link to the site, and again, that link doesn't work as it
should - unfortunately a lot of the users use hotmail.

What's the problem? What do I need to do?

TIA!

This works for me:

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
setTimeout ("LoseTheFrame()", 1000);
function LoseTheFrame() {
if (self.parent.frames.length != 0)
self.parent.location=document.location;
}
// -->
</script>

Works great (you know that)! ;)

I would have been happy with a push in the right direction, a snippet
is even better! Thank you!
