I think I know what you mean. Copy the frames page and rename it (ie. welcome1.htm), then replace open.htm with other.htm in this page. Point your email link at this new frames page and the rest of the site should work as normal.

Is it possible to make a link from an email message to a page in a site with frames, that page not being the page designated in the <FRAME SRC> tag, and have the page open up in a frame, not just by itself?

example: the page defining the frames is welcome.htm, and the frames it sets in the <Frame SRC> tags are: open.htm and menu.htm

I was wondering, if by using javascript I could set a link to another page in the site (other.htm) in an email message and have welcome.htm pop up with the two frames containing: menu.htm and other.htm instead of open.htm.

I hope this isn't too confusing!!
