It's been a long time since using frames, but, can anyone tell me why I get this message when I test in my browser [NO SUCH DEVICE OR ADDRESS. ERROR 1 OF 3] ?? Do I need to name the main frameset something particular? It should be the index.html, should it not? Anyone else experience this?

Thanks.

well, if your using regular frames, then you have to name it, like if you have a top and a bottom, you might name the top one "header" and the bottom one "content", and then if you have links in your header to the bottom, you have to put "http://bla.....com/blank.html" target="content" and it should load there. if this is a bit confusing (it was confusing typing it :O ) then maybe post a link or something and i'll try to help you out. ;)

I was actually making an error using dreamweaver. My files were site relative as opposed to document. I don't understand it, and neither was explorer—until now.

Thanks for the response [frames are just confusing anyway you look at it!]
