    Going from frame to non-frame web page

    I am setting up a internal website and I am using a non-frame index
    page, I then link to a page that contains frames... The problem is
    when I link back to the home page it opens a new window. I want to use
    the same browser window that I am currently in...

    :code

    <h2>Contents</h2>
    <p><strong><a href="index.htm l" TARGET="top">Ho mepage</a></strong></p>
    ect...

      Is that really a paragraph? and is it really strong emphasis?

      Anyway, a quick look at the HTML spec would have told you that
      target="top" targets the link at the window or frame called "top" and
      opens a new window called "top" if none exists. target="_top" is the
      special case that targets the link to the uppermost level of teh
      current frameset and is what you want.
