Kraken

ok i have a menu system for a web page (not up yet) and have 5 areas with different bgcolors
1 menu system.
thing is i want menu system to be same bgcolor as main frame (yeah there in 2 frames left and main)

i can get it to change to a different menu with different bgcolor tis a long way of doing it but it works but i want it to change to the pages of that colour as well. in one click of a mouse. or two on same button

ideas would be great well pissed off with it atm.

do you want to post the code you have already ?

onMouseOver and onClick would be the 2 functions i'd use in javasscript

Look at the navigation on my site...

Is this what you are looking for?

you could have the link going to the page in the main frame and then a onclick javascript function change the bgcolor in the menu frame.

<a href="mainpage.htm" target="main" onClick="document.bgColor='COLOUR'">LINK</a>

Simple as that really. Doing it from the main frame is a little different:

<a href="mainpage.htm" onClick="top.frames.left.document.bgColor='COLOUR'">LINK</a>

I'm also trying to do 2 things from one link but its a bit different.

There are 2 frames on the page. one is a menu frame and the other is the main frame. when you click on some links in the menu frame i need both the menu frame and the main frame to change.

Its there any way of setting 2 targets or get both the menu frame and the main frame to update at the same time?

Actually, i'm just after looking at your site DJB and thats the kind of thing i need. I'd like to have the whole menu change as there a number of levels to the site.

I've only been using frames for a few hours so help would be appreciated!!!

Cheers.

Much like the above Scruff. To change the current frame with the link, and the other frame with JavaScript:

<a href="THIS_FRAME_URL" onClick="top.frames.OTHER_FRAME_NAME.location='OTHER_FRAME_URL'">LINK_TEXT</a>

Or, to change the other frame with the link, and the current frame with JavaScript:

<a href="OTHER_FRAME_URL" target="OTHER_FRAME_NAME" onClick="location='THIS_FRAME_URL'">LINK_TEXT</a>

hth,

Cheers Adam.
Ii figured out a different way to do it myself using the onclick java script .

<a href="OTHER_FRAME_URL" target="OTHER_FRAME_NAME" onClick="window.navigate("THIS_FRAME_URL"") </a>

i'll try your code as well becasue i noticed that when you click the "back" button on the browser it will also go back through both the frames in the order they were updated.

Its not a biggie but is this always the case with frames?
