HTML - Changing Two Frames At The Same Time Using Submit Button

Hi!
I have created a simple site that I uploaded on freespacia.com and then used co.cc to give it a shorter name.
I have a form on my site, on the first page. When I load the site directly from freespacia the submit button works, but when I access the site on .co.cc, the submit button does not work.
What could be the problem?

I am creating a website that has a search button with an image. I would like to know if there is some simple code that I can include that would display the same basic image with a different color when the user mouses over the button.

Here is the code:

<FORM name="searchform"
onSubmit="return validateSearch();"
METHOD="POST"
ACTION="search_results_lt.asp">

<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Search" VALUE="" SIZE="20" >&nbsp;

<INPUT TYPE=IMAGE SRC="images/search_button.gif" Name="SearchButton" Value="Submit">

</FORM>

****
Thanks for your help,

Hi all,
I have a page which contains two frames, on the left frame i have hyperlinks which when clicked show pages corrseponding to those links in right frame.(basically its a navigational frame). But i have the following problem. of all the links i want to change one link to a button. that is when i click the button a apge corresponding to that must be displayed in right frame. But its not displaying in the right frame rather its dispalying in the left frame itself.

<button type="submit" ONCLICK="window.location.href='mypage.html'" target="showframe">ClickMe</button>

I am building this intranet for our employees at work. I am not a programmer, nor anykind of web professional, and I'm building this as an amateur. I have very basic knowledge of HTML and a bit of CSS, and that's pretty much it.

Once the thing is ready to be released, it will have to be updated on a regular basis, and by people whose background and function have nothing to do with scripting (in fact, I cannot take care of it myself all the time since I'm leaving for Europe soon). Therefore, I resigned to using MS Word 2007 as the html editor, since it's the only software anyone can usen here to update the files without having to learn how to code (I haven't found any freeware that didn't require prior html knowledge and the company will not pay for a software liscence of any kind). I know MS word is basically the worst thing one can use to build a website, but I couldn't find any better for this scenario.

Now I'm encountering a bit of a problem with the website, specifically with frames. The website (which is a frameset) is divided in two sections: a menu on the left (frame_menu), which is static should remain there all the time, and a frame to the right (frame_main) displaying the pages contents.

Now, when a user clicks on a link in frame_menu, the content (page A) displays in frame_main, which is what I want. Then if someone clicks on a link in the page A in frame_main that links to another page (page B), it will open gain in frame_main, replacing the page A that was there. So far, this is the behavior I want, and the frame properties were set for this.

The problem comes when the back button is used. If you are on page B, and then click the back button, you will come back to page A, in frame_main (so far still good), but any subsequent link the user will click after using the back button, whether it's a link in frame_menu or frame_main, will open in a new window, even though the default for opening links of the frame is set to frame_main as the target! This renders the frameset completely useless, and the whole frameset has to be closed and reloaded to function properly again.

I know frames are deprecated. The only alternative I have found was to use CSS to simulate frames. However, from what I have read (and tell me if I am mistaken), it only simulates the fact that you have a "fixed" menu on every page, but the menu is NOT a separate html file, and has to be part of every page on the website. This makes the updating of the menu very tedious, as it has to be changed on every page of the website, were an item to be added to it. This is why I used frames to begin with: no need to update every page to add something to your menu, just update the menu.html file and voila.

So I would like to know if you have any workaround for this problem. Any suggestion is appreciated. This was all tested with IE8. It's the only browser provided to the employees, I cannot use another one.

This is part of the code (generated by MS Word of course) that contains the frametset

<frameset framespacing=0 frameborder=0 border=0 cols="215,1*">
<frame name="frame_menu"
src="file:///\\sv050\GROUPS\AGT\AGT-CDS\AGT-CDS-CR\helper\html\menu.htm"
scrolling=no>
<frame name="frame_main"
src="file:///\\sv050\GROUPS\AGT\AGT-CDS\AGT-CDS-CR\helper\html\home.htm">
<noframes>
<body lang=EN-US style='tab-interval:36.0pt'>
<div class=WordSection1>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:10.0pt;line-height:115%'><span
style='font-size:11.0pt;line-height:115%'>This page uses frames, but your
browser doesn't support them.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
</body>
</noframes>
</frameset>

If the entire script of the frameset.html is needed, tell me and I'll post it.

Thanks in advance,

Hi guys,

im making a site for a client at the minute, i had successfully made it then noticed a glinch when i played it in 'firefox' (yes i to was shocked it wasnt in i.e).

Basicly i have an accordian, when a user clicks on say label 1, i need the labels, background colour and text colour to change. Simialrly label 2 will change them to another colour. Now this is how i achieved that:

HTML Code:

<!-- within the label tag on the accordian i placed the following code to change the required colours when the link is clicked //-->
    <a id="titleLink" class="title" href="#" onclick=  "body.style.background='#006600'; titleLink.style.color='#663333'; menLink.style.color='#231f20';"><h1>link 1</h1></a>

Now here is the code in its entirety, copy and paste this should work, as long as you have the required .js pages in a folder entitled Script.

HTML Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<link href="css/testAcc.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>some name here</title>


<script src="SpryAssets/SpryAccordion.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<link href="SpryAssets/SpryAccordion.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</head>

<body>




<!-- following is a sntarded accordian added in dreamweaver //-->
<div id="Accordion1" class="Accordion" tabindex="0">
  <div class="AccordionPanel">
    <div class="AccordionPanelTab">
    
    <!-- within the label tag on the accordian i placed the following code to change the required colours when the link is clicked //-->
    
    <a id="titleLink" class="title" href="#" onclick=  "body.style.background='#006600'; titleLink.style.color='#FFFFFF'; menLink.style.color='#231f20';"><h1>link 1</h1>
    
    </a>
    
    </div>
    <div class="AccordionPanelContent">Content 1</div>
  </div>
  <div class="AccordionPanel">
    <div class="AccordionPanelTab">
    
    <a id="menLink" class="title" href="#" onclick="body.style.background='#231f20';  titleLink.style.color='#663333'; menLink.style.color='#FFFFFF'; ">link 2</a>	
    
    </div>
    <div class="AccordionPanelContent">Content 2</div>
  </div>
</div>



<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var Accordion1 = new Spry.Widget.Accordion("Accordion1");
//-->
</script>
</body>
</html>

Now, in Safari this works great, as it does in i.e and Opera. However when i try it in firefox it dosnt seem to work. I think it has something to do with firefox wanting to mark the links as visited but im unsure.

Any ideas why this is happening and how i can avoid it!? any help would be appreciated, im tearing my hair out as the deadlines a-looming!

cheers
