Submit directs an ASP page to diff Frame

Hi – I usually work in a different area, and am wasting lots of time on what is I am sure a simple problem.



I have a simple html document.

The top part may or may not be a frame but needs to hold an input text box and a Submit button that sends the inputted Date to the below ASP page.



The bottom 2/3 must be a Frame displaying the ASP page. It accepts the date as a parameter and downloads data from SQL.

The data access and ASP functionality are all OK.



What I cannot do is to get the Form/Submit button to call the asp page BUT in a different Frame. Presently it overwrites the top data entry part. I can use a hyperlink to nominate a different target frame but I cannot use a link.



This must be done programmatically – firstly with a date inputted by the user, later with a Calendar Control.



Any people with spare time and opinions are welcome.



Thanks.

I did something like this a long long time ago. Basically I had a two frame frameset (left and right). In the right frame I had another two frame frameset (top and bottom). The date input and submit button was in the top frame. The results showed up in the bottom frame. When Submit was clicked I re-established the top/bottom frameset first and then wrote to the bottom frame.

Like I said this was a long long time ago. To tell you the trueth I forget how I ended up with what I ended up with, but it works. I doubt you would need the left/right frameset stuff. But the rewrite part might be needed. I can send you my files off list if you want. If so email me at duyenkim001@yahoo.com.

Hi

I may be missing something, but if you name your frame "resultsFrame" and add target="resultsFrame" to your FORM does it not post the ASP script to the right frame?
