Header(Location) query

[Stephen Preston]

I have a split frame which holds in the upper part a php file with a header
location function, which opens a new file (lower.php). I'm trying to get
the header function to open lower.php in the lower half of the frame,

header("Locatio n: lower.php TARGET='lowfram e')

with out the Target setting, it opens lower.php in the upper part (ie it
replaces its self), but with the TARGET statement it can't find the file.

Is this do able? or is the fact that the TARGET= is HTML which messes the
header up.

regards
Stephen

The header function only takes an absolute URL (so no target). Try using
Javascript instead.

No, not with HTTP headers.

Yes.

Javascript would appear to be the solution.
