hi
i am making a website for an assignnment using dreamweaver mx

i really need help with frames

i want it so a frame is on the left for a few pages (the same frame) and when you click the links in the frame they open on the right hand side with the frame staying put.
i think it has something to do with how to save them.

i cant get the frames to cooperate and its very annoying.

any suggestions?
thanks
ricky

I opened Dreamweaver MX up when I had to make a website for my IPT project; I didn't have a clue how to do anything. I ended up using Netobjects Fusion, it's a hell of alot easier!

well, i really hate dreamweaver due to its poor user interface, quirky quirks and all round dodginess...then again I dislike pretty much every editor that is WYSIWYG or has a WYSIWYG option....PSPad all the way I say ^_^

Anyways, to link back to a previous page you'll want this if you want to use the browsers history:

<a href="javascript: history.go(-1)">Back</a>

Just right whatever text you want where I wrote "Back". That will basicly send the user to whatever the previous page in their browsers history is.
