a href with frames

[Naresh Chaurasia]

Hi can I use a href across frames.

consider one.jsp

 
<a href="#tips">Go</a>

two.jsp

 
<a name="tips">Useful Tips Section</a>

  
<frameset rows="10%,90%" frameborder="1" border="1" framespacing="0">
<frame src="one.jsp" name="one" noresize scrolling=no>
<frame src="two.jsp" name="two">
</frameset> 
 

I am trying to define a href in two.jsp and the corresponding link in one.jsp.

Can i access two.jsp a href in one.jsp, with out re-loading the two.jsp in the frame two.

I really don't know what you are asking. You might try re-wording your question.

Or, it's likely that the answer to the question might be the use of the target attribute on the <a> tag. Just a stab.

I tried to use target attribute

 
<a href="#tips" target="parent.frames.two">Go</a>

But it opens a new window for me when i clikc link Go, What i am trying to achieve is that when i click on the link Go, I should be able to access the

 <a name="tips">Useful Tips Section</a>   

defined in two.jsp.

i.e. When i click link Go, the two.jsp defined in frame two should be at the top(trying to replicating the functionality of

  <a href="#tips" ...  

defined in same file.

the target should just be the framename, it should not include the parent reference.
