SOS: You are my only hope....

[virtualandy]

Hello anyone....

I need some urgent help with a problem that does not seem to follow the rules...

I have set up a frameset displaying my catalogue body on the right, and a (java scripted) set of navigation links on the left (see: http://www.gearshift.co.uk/acatalog/Catalogindex.html)

The intention is for the L/H links (in frame name "leftFrame") to open content in the R/H window (frame name "mainFrame").
As you will be able to see this is not the result.
No matter how I set the target frame for these links, the best I can get is for a new window to open.

Can anyone take a look at the page and source code and see if there is anything I am obviously doing wrong?

I have been pulling my hair out over this one for weeks.

Help me Obi Wan Kenobi, you are my only hope......

Hi,

Obiwan is here...

Found this piece of code in your html:

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
// set the window name to unique value
Now = new Date();
var WindowName = "W" + Now.getTime();
window.name = WindowName;
//-->
</script>

Removed it and things appeared to work OK. Not sure if you need it but it looks like this may be screwing up your frame name references.
