Again, an example would help to look at. It's probably just a matter of how you're linking between pages.

Dan,

Here is what I wanted to do.

Using an HTML frameset, I want to use visual images of picture frame choices that will output to a chosen image inside the Dynamic Frame program.

When I set the image page with Dynamic Frame as a default php page, it works great from one frameset window to another. (When you look at the code, you will see the php page that I set as a default.)

However, I wanted to set a global output (link) of a frame choice to be invoked on the target image in the right window (mainFrame). (I need to do this globally otherwise I have 38 frame choices to set times 235 images which is way too much work.)

See the sample: In essence, you will click on a frame sample on the left and it will frame the chosen image on the right. (Choose an image on the right first until I finish this program.)

A sample is found at the following url, however, I am not working on the SILVER link, so choose that one to try.

Click on an image on the right and when it comes up, click on a silver frame on the left and watch what happens. Ignore my black frame samples as they are all messed up.

Sample:

http://strivingartists.com/FRAME_TOP/art.htm

Also, instead of creating a Dynamic Frame php page for each image, is there a way to make a raw image that globally accepts the dynamic frame in a browser window?

Thanks.

Here's one problem ... your left frame is art.htm, so it's not a PHP page and incapable of processing PHP code, unless you've got that overridden at the server level (which is very inefficient). I noticed it because the links to the right frame contain &($img_url), which indicates the PHP code isn't being processed.

Dan,

The entire frameset is called "art.htm" - an html frameset.

The left frame is called "frame.htm" which I can change to frame.php, however the mainframe is called by a filename.php that changes with each image after that image is selected, this is the global I mean.

If a filename in the right side mainframe is say "6903.php" and the next image page is called "6904.php" then can I send the code to any file in spite of its name? Hence a wild card in the code that outputs the command?

In file systems that use an asterisk as a wildcard, I would choose " *.php " to send to the visible page with an image, in spite of that page's name. The asterisk would pick up any file or all files, so I know that is not right in php.

Is there a wildcard for php? Or is the problem with the left frame being an htm file?

If this doesn't work, can I call you?
