Activate two html frames from one menu option

frenchy

I had a web page with a top frame with menu options. Also had within body(below top frame), two frames: a)Left frame contains the body of every menu option, b) Right frame has sponsors to our team...

I am trying to make the sponsors rotate(with the use of php) but the key is that the menu options have '<a href=.....php....target=left... ' which references the php which is to be put in the left frame but I need the right frame to be triggered to get the next sponsor...

The php code to rotate the sponsors works... but what I need, is to figure out how to trigger the left frame to activate through php or html.....

The last line should say right frame not left frame....

You need to use javascript to force the other frame to load.

Assuming you have all the rotation code in the sponsors page, you could do this in the contents page:

So every time the content frame is loaded, it triggers a reload in the right frame. If you have problems with the browser caching the some_page.php, you can generate a random string, and append that to the URL of the onLoad function.

(Oh yeah, I didn't test the js since I hate the stuff. Here's a link that might come in handy too. http://www.pageresource.com/jscript/jframe2.htm )
