Just checked it out; it IS nice... but it's definitely the work of a sophisticated webmaker. I noticed the image was loaded in pieces, something that takes some expertise. I don't yet know how to do that. Sally I'm now learning how to do frames. What I really want to do is have a main menu with notes, divided horizontally, so that the reader will never lose sight of the text in one frame while he reads notes to that text in the notes frame: main frame ("main.html") at the top, 80%, a frame for notes ("notes.html") at the bottom, 20%. Then, I'd like to have anchored links in the main frame that will open in the notes. I did what you do with ordinary links: <a href="notes.html#note1> in the main.html to call up <a name="note1"> in notes.html But...heh heh... the link to notes.html opens up in your main frame and not in the secondary frame. NO GOOD! I suppose one solution would be to make new templates for every single note, and then make the link a reference to a new file. But then that's a powerful number of files to upload with your main frame. Is there a way around this... ...you web gurus?
