I didn't create the original site, which is nicely done but sadly all
done in frames. Now the problem, in the body of the email I NEED to
link to various internal pages of the website. I know this isn't
possible using HTML (as far as I know). So, what I figured I could do
is link to a page on the site, run some Javascript to open the
frameset with the desired frame in the content window.
No, this can't be done unless the original frames author allowed for the
passing of a param to the frameset telling it which frame to load. Which she
or he should have, but probably didn't. ;)
You might be able to hack it, but most of the time, security restraints will
prevent you from changing the frameset with script from a script that isn't
resident in the frameset.
Now, if the author put script into his frame pages that loads the page into
the frameset if it is attempted to be loaded without it, you could just link
to the pages. This is what I do for my intranet frame app. I also do the
first thing I mentioned. I don't know what the original author did, though.
If you can modify the frameset page, you could easily allow the passing of a
page (url param) telling it what page to load...
