Hi There,
I have a page that has links with some variables and I need to open the
results set in a frameset. I have tried doing this in various different
ways, but still cannot get the variable passed to the relevant frames within
the frameset.
What is the best way of getting this done.
Thanks
Hans

I don't know if this is the "best" way, but why not use "get"?
--------------------
frame A
--------------------
frame B
--------------------
if there was a variable in a script in frame a, then you could print the
var like this:
<a href="someFile.php?var1=<?= $var1 ?>" target="frame b">Link</a>
Then, in frame B, you could do something like this:
$variable = $_GET["var1"];

Jon,
Thanks, I did try this. Maybe I don't understand the problem. I have a non
frames page list.php, there are links that are generated from a record set
like:
<a href="city.php?City=<?php echo $row_RsCities['PlaceName']; ?>"
class="citynav"><?php echo $row_RsCities['PlaceName']; ?></a>
It works fine to a single page, but I now need to use a new frameset for the
city.php page.
If I have a frameset called city_frameset.php and then within that frameset
there is city.php I don't get the variable passed to the city.php page. I
also need this variable for other frames in the page as the city.php frame
will have related information to the city and the main frame page (the
centre portion) will carry other related information. The city.php page has
more links derived from a record set and the links used will then change the
main frame (centre) portion of the frameset.
Using the GET function gives me an error that the variable is not defined.
This tells me that the frameset is not getting the variable to the page in
question (city.php).
Any help would be appreciated

Seems like Jon's method should work... but have you tried cookies or
creating a session even? never used either with frames, but I image it would
do the trick.

Hi Adam,
I have tried a session, but with no luck. Maybe I am not setting the session
correctly. My code looks like this:
<?php
session_start();
if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['City'])) {$City = $HTTP_GET_VARS['City'];
session_register("City");
}
?>
Thanks

maybe here is some misunderstanding?
<frameset>
<frame name=a
src=link_page?city=<?=urlencode($city)?>&topic=<?= urlencode($topic)?>>
<frame name=b src=map_page?city=<?=urlencode($city)?>>
</frameset>
sorry, such a long time i've worked with html frames,
but all in all this look to me the right way to pass some vars
to frames - which are another pagerequests in themselves

Try this (I've only used underscores to stop the line breaking) http://www.ckdog.co.uk/php/temp/fram...n=South_Africa
The frameset looks like this:
<frameset rows="205,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0"
cols="*">
<frame name="topFrame" scrolling="AUTO" src="top.php<?php print
"?name=".$_GET['name']; ?>" frameborder="YES" >
<frameset cols="388,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0"
rows="*">
<frame name="leftFrame" scrolling="AUTO" src="left.php<?php print
"?age=".$_GET['age']; ?>" frameborder="YES">
<frame name="mainFrame" src="right.php<?php print
"?location=".$_GET['location']; ?>" frameborder="YES" scrolling="AUTO">
</frameset>
</frameset>
and the individual frames simply contain
Top frame
Your name is <?php print $_GET['name']; ?>
Left frame
Your age is <?php print $_GET['age']; ?>
Right frame
Your location is <?php print $_GET['name']; ?>
If this doesn't work, check the version of your PHP is greater than
4.1.0

Why would you use session for this ? nonsense. Hans method is what should be
used.
<frameset cols="205,*">
<frame name="leftFrame" src="city_frame.php">
<frame name="rightFrame" src="city.php">
</frameset>
city_frame.php
-----------------------------------------
<a href="city.php?city=Montreal" target="rightFrame">Montreal</a>
<a href="city.php?city=NY" target="rightFrame">NY</a>
<a href="city.php?city=Africa" target="rightFrame">Africa</a>
city.php
-----------------------------------------
echo $_GET["city"];
Even with more frames, the concept is the same... Good luck.

Hi All,
Thanks for all the help.
I did find a solution to the problem by simply adding the City parameter to
the frameset like this:
<frame src="topframe.php?City=<?php echo $_GET['City']; ?>" name="topFrame"
scrolling="NO" noresize >
<frameset rows="*" cols="239,*" framespacing="0" frameborder="NO"
border="0">
<frame src="list.php?City=<?php echo $_GET['City']; ?>" name="leftFrame"
scrolling="yes" noresize>
<frame src="main_frame.php?City=<?php echo $_GET['City']; ?>"
name="mainFrame">
Thanks again
