Refresh or redirect ??

Hi there,

I did a search an ran into multiple articles, but non of them regarding my problem so I will give it a try to find the answer here :)

I have an site, in ASP. When an user clicks on an link in the menu, this is a category, then a new page opens. This is an frame page. In this page a have an menu again with sub category's. Here's where my problem lies. When a user clicks the subcategory (is an link) then I want to have two pages in the frame page change at the same time. One page I want to display the choosen category, and on the other I want to show the articles from that category. I can change one of them, but both doesn't work.

Does anyone have an idea to solve this puzzle?

Thanks in advance...:)

Hi Fly,

Welcome to the scripts developer network. The easiest way to do this, in my opinion, is for the link to just change one framed page (this part is easy, and I assume you know how to do that already). This changed page however should use a javascript function to change the other frame like this:
[html]<body onload="javascript: window.open('/detailPage.asp?data=5', 'detailFrame');">[/html] Notice that this is virtually the same code as opening a pop up, and if this frame "detailFrame" doesn't already exist, browsers with pop up blockers will stop this. As long as the frame is already up, you shouldn't have a problem. does this make sense?
