Hi all,
I have a web portal I have been developing where I have put together a
fairly nice navigation system using frames. There is a left hand
menu, a "main" frame and a header and footer frame. Everything url
that a user clicks is displayed in the "main frame". I want to give
my users a function called "New Window" in the footer frame that will
"break" the main frame and open whatever is there in a separate
window. This will allow me to add more interesting contents since I
will no longer be "trapping" people in my frame system.
The problem is I don't know Javascript and my venture is not funded so
I can't pay anything right now but I would be very grateful is someone
knows if there is an easy way to do this. I tried to explain this to
some programmer friends of mine but I'm not sure we communicated
because they recommended what seemed like a complimented and involved
approach.
At first I was trying to find a function that would "look at" whatever
iis in the main frame and open it in a new window. I've looked at
this issue again, and I think it can be solved a different way without
referirng to "frames" at all. Would it be possible to write a
function in Javascript that would "remember" whatever the last url
clicked, and then open this in a new window? I think this would do
the exact same thing. My portal is at the link below if you want to
see why I need this.
Thank you
Rob
