Refresh ONE out of THREE frames....

Ton_Wibier

Hello Guru's!

On one of my webpages I am using THREE frames (i.e. 1, 2 and 3).

Frame number ONE is used for the menu;
Frame number TWO is used for an overview of products, which can be ordered;
Frame number THREE contains the order lines.

Now, when I click on the ORDER hyperlink in frame TWO the database is updated with the product chosen. Of course I want to show this rightaway in frame THREE (order lines).

What is the easiest way to refresh only frame THREE, without using top.window.location.href = "blabla.php"? I am stuck at the moment.

Thanks for your input!

Errr- can't you just use a "target" attribute in your form HTML line?

i.e.


<form name="blah" action="order.php" method="post" target="frame2">
...
</frame>

I haven't had a chance to check this, but I'm sure I remember using it before.

Hi Bobthedog!

Thanks for your input, but this isn't what I'm looking for. In frame TWO there are about 15 lines with products and all of them have a hyperlink for ordering the wanted product.

This hyperlink calls a PHP page which updates the database with the chosen product and then leaves with:
<script language="Javascript">
top.window.location.href = 'ordermenu.php'
</script>
This is how it's done now, but it's NOT a good solution.

So, the only thing I want is to refresh only frame THREE. That's it! I hope you can help me.
