Frames
I have a clients site that was done in frames. They dont want that to change. I am building a store, non frames. How can I link back to their pages from non-frames to frames without the individual pages coming out of their frames?
Thanks!

Complex solution:
Put this in the HEAD element on the static pages:
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
if(self!=top) top.location=self.location
//-->
</script>
Simple Solution:
Alternatively, use the href attribute target as designed:
<a href="shouldn't be in a frame.html" target="_top">link</a>pbhulipo posted this at 15:24 — 12th June 2003.

Better solution, convince (try again) them to move away from frame.

Fiddle faddle. If the client is intractable, do not try to convince them, you're just asking for them to lose respect for you. Instead, do what they are asking for and once done, point out how much better the static pages work.
Targets are necessary for frames, it's not unusual or a workaround, it's how to do it.
