short long mod with target
How can i do a short long display of data with targeting the long version to a other frame. my version http://www.inbetrieb.ch/aha/ works just for explorer. What's wrong?

My html.pl file is available at http://www.inbetrieb.ch/html.txt

thanks very much

Michael

Add target="windowname" in the link to the LONG display.

The problem is that you are not using proper HTML codes...

Change YOUR codes to the following:

Code:

<td><div class="text"><span class="title">»</span> <a href="$long_url" target="newwin">$rec{'Title'}</a></div></td>

Thank you very much, but it doesn't help.

When i save the html code dbman produces, and do the same, then it works. I made a example for http://www.inbetrieb.ch/aha/index2.html

Thanks Michael

The code you have looks correct, so I can't see why it isn't working. The only thing I can suggest is to name your nav frame as well.

It's just a stab in the dark though.

Where did you put your frameset coding? Also, please post a link to it or post it here for us to look at.

Hi Michael,

This coding is definitely correct. You are using a target="r" code in your html right? The only other thing I can think of that might be a problem is where it is incorporated. Are you putting this coding in a static page to call your database and list all records in the rightside frame named r? Or are you somehow putting this in a DBMan routine to do this? If the answer to the last question is yes, then how are you doing this?

I'll try to duplicate it on my database and let you know my results if you can answer the questions.

Chris

Re: short long mod with target In reply to
it is the first one. (a static page)

I think it's a problem of dbMan with Netscape.

Hi Micheli,

I jumped on this problem this morning and got it to work. Here's the coding you need:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>effort</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<FRAMESET COLS="260,*" >
<frame src="http://inbetrieb.ch/cgi-bin/dbman/db.cgi?db=default&uid=default&ID=&Title=&Teaser=&Text=&Land=Ja&Haus=Ja&Date=&keyword=&mh=10&sb=---&so=ascend&view_records=View+Records" name="left" scrolling="no">
<frame src="right.html" name="right" scrolling="no">
</FRAMESET>
</HTML>

I don't know why you need to use a frame name that says "right" rather than "r" but you do. The coding above works, but when I changed "right" back to "r" it started opening into a new window again.

Oh well, it's a mystery that I don't necessarily need answered now that it works.

Please be sure to change your targets from "r" to "right" in the source page showing on the left side also.

I finaly found the problem! Puuuuuuhhhhhhaaaaa. It was the frameset. It's a strange behavior of Netscape

Version 1 <frame src="http://www.inbetrieb.ch/cgi-bin/dbman/db.cgi?db=default&uid=default&amp

With this version i have to call the site http://www.inbetrieb.ch/aha

Version 2 <frame src="http://inbetrieb.ch/cgi-bin/dbman/db.cgi?db=default&uid=default&amp

With this version i have to call the site without www else it won't work with netscape.


a strange world

Thank you for everybodys help¨

Michael

sorry my strange english
