the frame file is "mainframe.php" (4 frames)
and the header,footer and contents are ".html"
with the main frame of the page a ".php" and all the other pages to be displayed as ".php"
...and the only page which has php scripting is the main frame of the page called "details.php", which is called from the initial page in the main frame, "welcome.PHP"
i have put php code in the framset page and this is executed as expected, but none of the frames execute the php
thanks
