PHP header - how to I use _top? Help!

Adams-Blake Co.

I have an application with two frames... the traditional left hand menu strip
and the large right-hand main window. I want to "break out" and display an
error page so that they can't see the left hand menu frame. I want to show
plain old full-page display.

I've looked all over Google Groups fo this answer. There are lots of folks
who have asked this question but so far I have not found an answer that
works.

There has got to be a way!

Please?

Thanks,
Al

There is.

<a href="errorpage.html" "target="_top">Error Page</a>

http://wp.netscape.com/eng/mozilla/2...mo/target.html is one
of many pages which covers use of target.

Whoops: too many inverted commas...

PHP isn't going to give you what you need, but some output from PHP can ;) - by adding the onload to
the body tag of the output framed page:

<body onload="if (self != top) top.location = self.location">

Ah ha! Now I see. The above worked great. Thanks for the help. I really
appreciate it.
