Dag Bert,

prog is not a string but an array.
If the calling url was:

http://mySite.nl/test.html?x=progname&y=blah

if (prog[0] == "x=progname ") {

Re: Go directly to desired page, in JavaScript

Dag Evertjan,

The way I interpret your reply, the following code should work:

<html>
<frameset rows="88,*">
<frame name="kop" noresize src="kop.htm" />
<frameset cols="152,*">
<frame name="menu" noresize src="menu.htm" />
<script language="JavaS cript">
prog = location.search
prog = prog.substr(1)
prog = prog.split("&")
if (prog[0]=="gezondheidsl ijn") { document.write ("<frame name='body'
src='pi-gezondheidslijn .htm' />") }
else { document.write ("<frame name='body' src='hoofdpagin a.htm' />") }
</script>
</frameset>
</frameset>
</html>

I'm afraid it doesn't. Just like before, I see the top and left frame
appear, but there's no body.

TIA and regards, Bert V.

This
= if (prog[0]=="gezondheidsl ijn") =
would require zoiets als:

http://mySite.nl/test.html?gezondheidslijn&y=blah

This cannot be the output of a <form>

Do you get javascript errors ?

Please start debugging by inserting a handful of alert()s:

<frame name='body'
<script type="text/JavaScript"> // the 'language=' is depriciated
var prog = location.search
alert(prog) // is there a & in the string ???
prog = prog.substr(1)
alert(prog) // do you see the same without the '?' ?
prog = prog.split("&")
alert(prog[0]) // do you see 'gezondheidslij n' ?
if (prog[0]=="gezondheidsl ijn"){
alert('ja') // 'if' is given true
document.write( "src='pi-gezondheidslijn .htm'")
}
else {
alert('nee') // false
document.write( "src='hoofdpagi na.htm'")
}
</script>
/>

Are the two links correct ?

Hoi Evertjan,

I flipped a couple of quotes, and ended up with the following complete code:

<html>
<frameset rows="88,*">
<frame name="kop" noresize src="kop.htm" />
<frameset cols="152,*">
<frame name="menu" noresize src="menu.htm" />
<frame name="body"
<script type="text/JavaScript">
var prog = location.search
alert(prog) // is there a & in the string ???
prog = prog.substr(1)
alert(prog) // do you see the same without the '?' ?
prog = prog.split("&")
alert(prog[0]) // do you see 'gezondheidslij n' ?
if (prog[0]=="gezondheidsl ijn")
{
alert("ja") // 'if' is given true
document.write( 'src="pi-gezondheidslijn .htm"')
}
else
{
alert("nee") // false
document.write( 'src="hoofdpagi na.htm"')
}
</script>
/>
</frameset>
</frameset>
</html>

I think we're getting closer:
This time around, regardless of whether I add "?gezondheidsli jn", I get a
body...but it stays blank. And, as if that's not curious enough, I'm not
getting any of the alerts.

Oh, I nearly forgot to write that I'm not getting any error messages.

TIA and regards, Bert V.

Tja, Bert, dan wordt de hele script niet uitgevoerd in een frame
declaratie!!!

Dit werkt wel:

<html>

<script type="text/JavaScript">
function kies(x){
myBody.location .href=
(location.searc h.substr(1).spl it("&")[0]==
"gezondheidslij n")
?"pi-gezondheidslijn .htm":"hoofdpag ina.htm"
}
</script>

<frameset rows="88,*" onLoad="kies()" >
<frame name="kop" noresize src="kop.htm" />
<frameset cols="152,*">
<frame name="menu" noresize src="menu.htm" />
<frame name="myBody" />
</frameset>
</frameset>

</html>

[ik heb de code sterk verkort en de naam "body" vervangen,
omdat dat soms een "reserved word" zou kunnen zijn.]

I had a similar problem. I got it to work with iframes using the
following:

<script language="JavaS cript">
page = "main.htm"; //default page
if(location.sea rch) page = location.search .substring(1);

//insert extra logic here if want

document.write( '<iframe src="' + page + '" id="myIframe"
name="myIframe" width="630" scrolling="no"
frameborder="1" ></iframe>');
</script>

You could add logic in there, like:

if (page = "help") page = help.html;

I hope this helps.

Jim
