Re: Newbie: Fundamental question. Long.

You can't easily transfer a PHP variable from one FRAME to another, *unless* you go through the parent (FRAMESET) page. So, if you are using FRAMEs for their scrolling properties and their "look" rather than "not refreshing" the left frame, you just have to make all your TARGET="_top" and then in the main page, pass everything down to the FRAME URLs. <FRAMESET ...> <FRAME SRC=navbar.php?id=<?php echo $id;?> ...> <FRAME SRC=search.php?id=<?php echo $id;?> ...> <FRAME SRC=results.php?id=<?php echo $id;?> ...> </FRAMESET ...> -- Visit the Zend Store at http://www.zend.com/store/ Wanna help me out?
