Require Frameset

[Guadala Harry]

I have some pages that open in a frameset. I want them to be opened *only*
in the frameset (and not on their own). How can I disallow a page from being
opened on its own (i.e., allow to be opened only when from within frameset)?

Thanks!

you will have to resort to javascript for this. asp.net doesnt have the
concept of frames and the page has no information on whether it is loaded in
a frame or on a normal window (either way a frame is just a window)
if (parent.frames.length = 0) {
parent.location.href = "your_frameset.aspx or html page"
}

Have your page make sure that it's within a frameset. If it's not, it can
redirect to the frameset page.
MSDN's site does this pretty well.
From looking at their source code they do it with client side javascript
code:
if (self == top) ...

View the code yourself:

(right click in the bottom right frame and do a view source.)
