search result to frame
Hehe . . :-)
Is there anyone out there, that could 'hint' me how to realize that a forwarded search from frame "search" would project the search-result in frame "search-result".
Thanks in advance!!

Use the 'target=search-result' eg..

for a standard link.. use the following..

<a href="link_URL" target=search-result>click here</a>

for a form.. use the following..

<form action="$db_script_url" method="post" name="form1" target=search-result>

hope this helps Smile

hi,
how can i hook into a database with a form in one frame and have the results displayed in the other frame. i know one can search the database through a link from a separate html page (<a href="/cgi-bin/dbman/db.cgi?uid=...">.
but is it possible to do this with a form?

If you want to link to a frame from a search form, you have to put the target attribute in the FORM codes, like the following:

Code:
<FORM METHOD=GET ACTION="/cgi-bin/db.cgi" TARGET="_searchresults">
