This is gonna take abit of explaining. I am in the middle of two different websites, both of which use iframes. The first, I have used a drop-down scrollbar in the same table as the iframe but can't get the links in the scrollbar to open up in the iframe, but I can if I put an ordinary link down. This is the first problem. The second on is on the other website. For this I have links in the left frame and my iframe is in my right frame. I can't seem to get the pages in the iframe. Can someone please help?
Thank you very much!!

I don't understand what you are asking...you want to get the links to open in the iframe?
Give the iframe a name, and add target="name" to your links.

I've tried that it didn't work. I have 2 different websites I'm working on. Both use Iframes. The first website is made with tables and in one of the tables in an iframe with a drop-down menu underneth. I have tried to target them in to the iframe but it didn't work.
On the second website I am using frames. In one frame there are links to all my pages. In the other frame is the iframe. I don't know how to target the link into the iframe. I have tried targeting it to the ifame but that didn't work. I wondered if anyone new what I could have done wrong or knows how to fix it.
Thanks.

If I remember correctly IFrames only work in Internet Explorer and NO other browser. Is this still the case? or have other browsers decided to adopt them?

Iframes work in at least Mozilla and Internet Explorer (I don't have anything else). If I understand your second problem correctly... You have a frameset page with 2 frames. One of the frames contains the links and the other frame contains the iframe. I don't think there is a way to direct the link to the iframe inside of the frame. The first problem is you have a dropdown box with links and when you click on a link in the list you want it to display in the iframe (correct?)... I think that is possible but I'm not completely sure how to do it, I'll go see if I can find something.

Could we get links to the sites in question or at least some of the code?

Sorry, it is not on the internet. I have just been doing the site design and not the content. However, I have fixed the first problem but I still can't get the links from the drom down scrollbar into the iframe
