Fall 1999 - Section 703 - Load Multiple Frames in One Link


Usually, only one document can be accessed from a link.

But, with a bit of trickery, you can load multiple frames at once, as long as the frames are adjacent to each other and can be easily grouped together.

The adjacent, grouped frames are treated as a single frame in this frameset. However, the source document to which the frameset points should be defined as another frameset that includes the individual frames that you've grouped together.

By loading new framesets within the top-level frameset, you can effectively load multiple frames with the same link.
