Target Frame problem

On
http://www.adamsrecruitment.com/06/frameset/3.htm
- the left menu items (Intro, how we work etc.) need to be opening
in de frame. The target is defined well (main). Unfortunately some
people experience on their computer with IE 6 that the page is nog
opening in the frame (main) but outside the frame (as a _blank). I
don't experience this problem on my computer not in IE 6 nor IE 7,
and have no clue why this is happening. Can anyone help me
out?

You have discovered just one of the many reasons not to use
frames. I
suppose it's too late to suggest that you get rid of them?
With framesets
like this, I suspect you are driven around the bend working
on this site -
<frameset cols="*,825,*" frameborder="NO" border="0"
framespacing="0">
<frame src="../left/1.htm" name="left" frameborder="no"
scrolling="NO"
noresize id="left" >
<frameset rows="*,310,*" frameborder="NO" border="0"
framespacing="0">
<frameset rows="*,50"" frameborder="NO" border="0"
framespacing="0">
<frame src="../top/1.htm" name="top" frameborder="no"
scrolling="no"
id="top" >
<frame src="../middle/1.htm" name="middle"
frameborder="no" scrolling="NO"
noresize id="middle" >
</frameset>
<frameset cols="325,501" frameborder="NO" border="0"

</frameset>
<frame src="../main/3.htm" name="main" frameborder="no"

</frameset>
<frame src="../bottom/3.htm" name="bottom" scrolling="NO"
noresize
id="bottom">
</frameset>
<frameset rows="*,310,*" frameborder="NO" border="0"
framespacing="0">
<frameset rows="*,50"" frameborder="NO" border="0"
framespacing="0">
<frame src="../righttop/1.htm" name="righttop"
id="righttop" >
<frame src="../rightmiddle/1.htm" name="righmiddle"
frameborder="no"
scrolling="NO" noresize id="righmiddle">
</frameset>
<frame src="../right/1.htm" name="right" frameborder="no"
scrolling="NO"
noresize id="right" >
<frame src="../rightbottom/1.htm" name="rightbottom"
frameborder="no"
scrolling="no" id="rightbottom">
</frameset>
</frameset>
<sigh>
Why on earth have you used such a complex frame layout?
Also, there is a grammatical conflict in this line -
"Adams' Multilingual Recruitment was founded by Maureen Adam"
and unfortunately in the logo. If the name is "Maureen Adam"
then the
proper possesive construction is "Adam's" not "Adams'". If
"Adams'" is
correct, then the last name would have to be "Adams".

  • Button item's target frame property creates a problem

    Hi All
    I have created a button in one page.set its destination property and set target frame property to _blank
    When i run this page in jdeveloper,it works fine.
    when i deploy that page in Client's env,it says that _blank is undefined.
    Is there any parameters we have to set it to enable target frame property.
    Is there any other way to open a page in another window?
    Any pointers will help me a lot.
    Thanks

    I am facing the same problem. Any solution ??

  • Targetting frames - something different?

    Has something changed with Flash? For some reason a file I
    created a few weeks ago that has buttons targetting frames no
    longer works. It used to. I even created a new simple .swf with the
    following script on the button:
    on(release){
    getURL("yellow.html", "mainFrame");
    getURL("red2.html", "bottomFrame");
    But both Firefox and IE are opening up new windows rather
    than loading the pages into the frames. Has something changed,
    because I can't see the problem. This is rather urgent so any help
    would be much appreciated.
    Cheers.

    Ok,
    Seems that it's a local problem. As soon as I uploaded it, it
    worked. Must have something to do with the new ACscript thing. I
    hope a fix is coming for this!

  • CS2 JS - targetting frame labels within groups

    I have some CS2 JS scripts that cycle through sequentially labelled frames but they fail if the target frame happens to be part of an object group.
    Is it possible to target frames via their labels whilst they are still grouped together or perhaps grouped with other objects?
    thanks
    Greg

    Hi Greg and Brett,
    Here is what Robin said but in JS. It works even for nested groups.
    Kasyan
    var myDoc =app.activeDocument;
    var myFrame = myDoc.textFrames.item("red");
    // do something here
    myFrame.fillColor = myDoc.colors.item("C=0 M=100 Y=0 K=0");
    var myGroups = myDoc.groups;
    for ( i = 0; i < myGroups.length; i++) {
       var myItems = myGroups[i].allPageItems;
       for ( j = 0; j < myItems.length; j++) {
          if (myItems[j].constructor.name == "TextFrame" && myItems[j].label == "red") {
             // do something here
             myItems[j].fillColor = myDoc.colors.item("C=0 M=100 Y=0 K=0");

  • Can I size a pop-up window called from a link from "_blank" in Target Frame

    I would like to size the window smaller then what the default is set to when calling a pop-up window via a link when setting the Target Frame property to _blank.  Is there a way to do this so I have some control of the size of the window?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    As far as I know it is not possible to resize the window that gets opened when target="_blank". Window can be resized only if it is opened only if it is opened using window.open

  • Firefox does not print the target frame in PeopleSoft Enterprise or Campus Soultions Portals

    When using PeopleSoft Enterprise Portal or Campus Solutions Portal Firefox does not print the target frame. PeopleSoft utilizes iframes and has indicated this is the technology path they will follow. On each page is a header, footer, and left menu. Content is displayed in the target after it is selected from the left menu. This issue prevents users from using the standard print preview or print functionality.

    We need the standard print and print preview functionality that all of our end users are already familiar with to work. We have a large end user group that is frustrated this functionality is available in IE and Chrome, but not Firefox.

  • Pass Value by Form Based on Procedure in Target Frame

    I made a form based on procedure and trying to pass all variables to a target frame called "dest2". I got the sample code on this forum and used window.location, but then I figured it can't pass values to another frame. I tried window.open, but can't seem to figure out how to code it.
    Basically on the page, it has the portal form using stored procedure, and a IFRAME named "dest2".
    The detail my stored procedure is:
    ====================
    Create or Replace Procedure WM.TEST
    p_from_date IN VARCHAR2,
    p_to_date IN VARCHAR2,
    p_desformat IN VARCHAR2,
    as
    begin
    htp.p('<script>');
    htp.p('window.location="http://domain/portal/page?_pageid=1063,801014&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL&p_from_date='||p_from_date||'&p_to_date='||p_to_date||'&p_p_desformat='||p_desformat||'"');
    htp.p('</script>');
    end;
    ===============
    Does anybody know how to modify this procedure to pass value to target frame = "dest2" ?
    Thanks,
    Sal

    Hi,
    For documentation purpose, you can read Oracle9iAS Portal Bible -
    they have a complete chapter on creating forms based on stored
    procedure.
    Hope this helps.

  • Buttons to Target Frames in MX

    having trouble getting buttons to target certain frames in
    flash MX.
    I basically have a menu bar, and I am trying to get each
    button to target a specific frame in my timeline and also STOP at
    that point.
    That way when a visitor comes to the site they can access all
    the information without the movie playing everything at once.
    EXAMPLE:
    My movie stops at from 20. Button1 on frame 20 should target
    frame 21. (once properly coded, I can handle the rest to get it to
    stop at let's say frame 30)
    Button 2 (on frame 20) should target frame 31, and so on and
    so on.
    All references I have been researching have been either old
    versions of flash, etc, etc. and you know how that goes.
    Thanks in advance!!!!

    Best advice, don't use Frames.   Server-Side Includes and DW Templates will help you maintain consistent looking web pages without Frames.

  • Premiere Elements 7 - When play my work frame problems occur. codec issues?

    Hello,
    I use Premiere Elements 7 to edit my videos; however, recently I have found that most of the videos I add to my work shows a frame problem every time I play. I am not so familiar with the terms but I will try my best to explain how it happens.
    1. I open a new project
    2. Add a video (usually avi format)
    3. I play the video whitout editing.
    4. I see that after every 5 frames there is a frozen frame (like a dublicate of the 5th frame)
    It results me to cut my video in every 5 frames to get rid of the frozen frame and it takes a lot of time.
    What would be causing that? When I play the video with my media players it shows perfectly but when I add it to Premiere Elements 7 to edit, this is what happens.
    I also see that there are multiple fddshow icons on the right bottom of my screen.
    I assume there is something wrong with the codecs. In that case, what would be the best codec to have in order to edit my videos on PE7?
    What do you suggest I do?
    Thank you in advance.

    Dear Bill,
    I have formated my computer and reinstalled my operating system Vista Home 32 bit. Then I switched from PRE7 to PRE8.
    This is my computer info below;
    CPU Türü QuadCore Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300, 2500 MHz
    4GB RAM
    ATI Radeon HD 3600 Series 512 MB
    I have AVC Core 2.0.0 codec, NVIDIA PureVideo codec for MPEG, K-lite MEga codecs installed as they are-without any configuration.
    Gspot still shows Xvid codec XviD ISO MPEG-4.
    File Length Correct
    Multipart OpenDML AVI (2 parts)
    (69639 frames in first part, 2663 frames follow)
    Interleave: 1 vid frame (40 ms), preload=504
    Audio frames: Split across interleaves
    [JUNK] VirtualDub
    [JUNK] MPEG2 build 24586/release
    [ISFT] VirtualDubMod 1.5.4.1 (build 2178/release)
    [USER] XviD0050
    So I assume Xvid was used for this file. Considering that what would you reccomend me to do in order to view this file and be able to edit on PRE8?

  • Problem Targeting Frame From Flash

    Seems to be a new problem.
    Trying to open a html page in a frameset page from flash
    seems to have stopped working correctly. It's opening in a new
    window every time.
    HOWEVER, did notice if I publish to a live server, seems to
    work fine. Just makes for testing locally a pain.
    Have not upgraded flash lately in either safari or firefox
    which both are experiencing this issue. (think I still have flash 8
    player)
    This is a site I've been developing for several weeks and was
    just working fine as of about 10 days ago.
    Anything new happen lately? (like the IE embed object issue
    earlier this year)
    Any insight or confirmation of this would be
    appreciated.

    ok so my flash as3 is incorrect.
    what should it be?

  • Frames Target Link problem

    I am working on a website and am having trouble with a link
    that will be clicked in one frame and opened in another frame. For
    some reason it isn't working. I don't want it to open a new window,
    I want it to open the page in the bottom frame.
    I only have one link setup (the "In Memoriam" link button)
    that I've been trying but it opens in a new window.
    Main Page:
    http://www.alamoheights68208.com/
    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! :)

    In the frameset page change this -
    <frame src="bottom.html" id="_bottom" />
    to this -
    <frame src="bottom.html" name="_bottom" />

  • Frames problem

    Hello! My problem is that a link from a flash button in the
    upper frame opens in a new window instead of going into the main
    frame. The target of the flash is the name of the main frame.
    Please suggest any proposals. If there is need I'll post the code,
    but please explain me which code exactly. Thank you all in
    advance.

    Also i'd like to in some cases make the class (frame) being called the only one focusable until the operations arre carried out on it,Typically an application only has one JFrame. When you need to collect additional information or do additional processing you would use a JDialog (not a JFrame). When you create the JDialog you would make it a modal dialog (read the API). This means that you must close the dialog before focus will go back to your main JFrame.

  • DW8 flash button target frame not working

    I'm using DW8 v8.0.2 on Windows XP Home Edition SP1. I have
    created a frameset by doing the following:
    - Select File>New from menu bar
    - Select Framesets category
    - Select Fixed Top, Nested Left in Framesets column
    - Select Create
    Then, I add a Flash Button in the leftFrame and target the
    mainFrame by doing the following:
    - Select Insert>Media>Flash Button on menu bar
    - Select Blip Arrow
    - Set text to Information
    - Set Size to 12
    - Select my information.htm file from Browse button of Link
    box
    - Select mainFrame from Target box drop-down list
    - Enter information.swf as filename in Save as box
    - Select OK
    Then, I select File>Save All
    When I preview in a browser, I select the button & the
    content opens in a new browser window instead of the mainFrame
    frame. The same happens if I select leftFrame as target. However,
    _top, _self, _parent, and _blank seem to work well. I renamed
    mainFrame to contentFrame & it made no difference. I tried it
    in IE and Netscape, no difference, except Netscape is a lot faster.
    Tried text links to do the same thing & they work fine.
    Tried other flash buttons and they behave the same as Blip Arrow
    button.
    Saw several discussions on web & in this forum, but no
    solutions. Searched Knowledgebase, no solutions.
    Saw some attempts at solutions dealing with button code, but
    DW8 creates .swf file & button code is not editable.
    Is there a solution to this problem?

    I've encountered the same problem. This can't possibly be a
    bug ... it's too common a function. I've noticed there has been no
    reply to your posting. Have you figured out the solution from
    another source?

  • I can't open page in the targeted frame

    Can't believe I'm asking this...
    I'm Using DW to build a site of framed pages to display
    Design Concepts to
    clients. For some reason when my link has:
    target="left" in it, and the left frame is named id="left",
    the page keeps
    opening in a new window.
    I'm amazed that I'm having this problem after 10 years! I
    suppose I just
    never use frames normally and I'm missing something that's in
    front of my
    face.
    Thanks

  • Mid 2009 MBP Boot and Target Disk problem

    Hello all.
    I'm trying to help a friend get his Mid 2009 MBP back on its legs. He dropped it at some point and its condition has been deteriorating since. It has finally come to the fact that his computer simply won't boot into OS X. It has Leopard installed on it still.
    We decided to try and get his data off of his computer and when we connect with firewire using target disk mode, it can see his hard drive, but it seems every couple minutes, the disk mounts again. After a while, the longest we've had it on (15 minutes) has had 6 copies of his "Macintosh HD" connected to my computer. You can only access data on the latest mounted drive, and if you try to transfer data, the transfer fails when the drive gets re-mounted the next time.
    We've run the hardware diagnostics, both the quick and the extended and neither have found problems with anything, so that's why we figured we could just get his data off the computer and then reload Leopard or Snow Leopard onto it.
    Any guesses as to what's happening? Any possible solutions?
    I was thinking maybe the hard drive cable, but I don't think that would keep multiple "Macintosh HD"s connected to my computer all at once.
    Thanks for your time.

    Is a Genius Bar diagnosis free?
    My understanding is that the diagnosis is free. Go to "Got a technical question? Step up to the Genius Bar" (http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/) to read more about their services and how to make an appointment.
    Of note is:
    How should I prepare for my appointment?
    First, back up your data. (We’re happy to show you how to back up, but remember we’re not responsible for data loss.)
    I don't know how this will actually play out in your situation (i.e. they might give same advice as above, have a different approach, or they might ask to do diagnosis - that would likely answer your question as to if data retrieval is possible / practical - just keep in mind that they are not responsible for data loss).
    Given that the MBP was dropped and the problems as stated, I would make an appointment. Would like to hear how it all works out.
    Best of luck.
