When I click on a Hyperink on my website the URL doesn't change!

For Example. When my page loads I get: http://www.mypage.com/index.asp

When I click on a URL which points to the page contents.html or main.asp the URL above remains the same.

Why is this ?

Sorry, can't help you without an actual example!


Post your code.

Here is an extract of the code:

<a href="contents.asp" target=basefrm><font face="Arial" color="Black" size="1"><b>contents</b></font></a>


Thanks.

In a word: frames.

When you are displaying pages through frames, the URL will remain the page that constains the frameset.

Not sure if you can prevent this behavior (I kind of like it actually)

just to add to what monte96 said,

if you just type in just the "base" address without index.asp it looks a lot cleaner as you navigate within the frames. eg http://www.nmretd.com/

index.asp will be loaded automaticaly (if you have set it as the default page that is! On PWS it is actuallt default.asp or default.htm which is the default page but you can change this.)
