Targeting the Whole Window
Eventually in a framed site you want to "break out"... link to a page and have that page take over the entire window. To create this sort of link, we add TARGET="_top" to the <A ...> tag:
| this code |
produces this |
<A HREF="wwtarget.php" TARGET="_top">
|
the link in this page |
No matter what the other frames are named,
the entire window is always named "_top" |
In the previous example we used TARGET to refer to a frame we had named
MAIN. In this example, however, we refer to a frame we never named: "_top". We can do this because the outermost frame (that is, the entire window) is already named "_top". "_top" is a reserved name which is automatically given to the entire window. So when we say
TARGET="_top",
we are saying "put the new web page in the entire window". Note that
"_top" needs to be in all lower-case, it should have quotes around it, and don't forget the underscore ("_").
