hi,
is there any way to refresh a page in another frame?  i wanted to build a 
site with 2 frames, top and main, top will contain a pic of login which 
changes to a pic of logout once the user logs in.  the login form will be 
in main, so i need to check for a valid login in main, set a variable in 
global.asax and then refresh the top frame, which can then check so see if 
a there is some id set in global to display the correct pic.

Thanks.

If your just need to change the login pic, I dun think there is a need to 
use 2 frames, unless you are trying to do something else using 2 frames.

So, if you have a single webpage without frames, the login/logout pic 
remains at the top of the page.

So after you have checked the user's identity, just change the ImageUrl 
property of the ASP.NET Image control accordingly.
