How do I make a button target a certain frame in a frames page?

[crptcblade]

in what sense?

[tahoer111]

If there is a button in frame a, when clicked a link opens up in frame b.

[crptcblade]

<input type="button" name="cmdLink" value="Click" onClick="document.frames.b.location.href='http://www.yahoo.com'; return true">

I think will do it

crptcblade, you are right about the onClick="document.frames.b.location.href...."

but doesn't it need to have javascript:(all one word) before the document.frames.... ?

[gwdash]

no, only if its the href of a link, onclick doesn't, ie:

<a href="javascript:history.back();">Go Back</a>

vs.

<a href="" onclick="history.back();">Go Back</a>
