Ted You could either send a new frameset page, which will load both new frames you require, or you'll have to use a client side scripting language (i.e. javascript)
Here's a link that shows one way to do it: http://javascript.internet.com/navigation/change-2-frames.html Carl ---------- >From: "Ted Markowitz" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Updating multiple frames in one CGI processing cycle >Date: Wed, Mar 27, 2002, 8:04 pm > > >BlankAs I understand it, because of the single-request/single-response nature >of the HTTP protocol and the way frames are treated as individual, separate >pages, that there's no way to get results from a form in one frame, process it >with a CGI script and the output a new page to both that frame AND another >frame during the same processing cycle?
