Menu links in frame not working after I link to external site usingIE

Alan F

Can anybody please help me with this one.

I have just changed my hosting company and moved a web site to it.
For some reason my framed menus now no longer works correctly.()
I have set up up a simple test for it at
http://www.ashbourne-town.com/test_frame.htm

The problem is that as long as I stay within my own website pages the
top menu links work fine.

But as soon as I click on an external URL on one of my pages
(displayed in the bottom frame) I get the external site displayed ok
in the bottom frame, but now the menu links in the top frame no longer
work and I can not get back to my own site - unless I use the "back"
button.

This only happens in Internet Explorer - in FireFox every thing works
ok. - I'm stumped :-(

I use Dreamweaver MX 2004.
I have asked my new hosting company, why it does not work on their
servers but did on my previous company but they have no idea.

In hope
Alan F.

Check IE security settings.

Look for "Navigate sub-frames across different domains"

Set it to Enable or Prompt.

Using Links Within CSS

by: Drew Richardson | last post by:

On my page, I have a stylesheet that puts a "cell" in the middle of the page then creates another frame within that cell. I have my external links below the middle frame, so that only my content scrolls. My question is, can I put a link outside of the content div class that will load into the content frame? My stylesheet code is below if it helps... div.textbox { background-color: #000000; font-family: verdana;

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
