I have an ASP page with 6 frames ( header & footer and 4 data frames)

Does anyone know how to either JavaScript, VBScript Hyperlinking or anything, how I can reset frames - content1, main and main2 to a blank form.

would this have to be a multiple refresh/redirect thing or is there a simple command I can use ?

You can do it with a hyperlink to "about:blank" specifying the frame name in the taget attribute.

Or you can use the frames collection in JS/VBS to change the location.href of each frame to about:blank, something like
parent.frames["framename"].window.location.href="about:blank"

pgtips thanks so far.. but stupid head on today...

I have added this to a script,
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
     function reset(){
     parent.frames["content1"].window.location.href="about:blank"
     parent.frames["main2"].window.location.href="about:blank"
     parent.frames["main"].window.location.href="about:blank"
     main2.refresh
}
// -->
</SCRIPT>

and called the script at the point I need to refresh.. by <% resetscreen = "reset()"%>

but nothing draws a blank apart from my brain......

Can you do multiple frames in one hyperlink ?

Is the page fully loaded at the point when you call the reset() method? Sometimes there are probs when its not coz not all the objects are available.

I assume your script is in one of the pages within the frameset?

What happens when you do things like this:
alert(parent.frames); // should get "[object]"
alert(parent.frames['content1']); // should get "[object]"
alert(parent.frames['content1'].window); // should get "[object]"
alert(parent.frames['content1'].window.location.href); // should get current url

I got it in the end,
bit to do with the way I was calling the statement,
I moved it right to the end and found the correct way to call it ( well the way that worked anyway....)

Thanks, this has helped a lot..
