You could use a hidden frame (3rd frame) that scans the last incoming message in the chat for a URL ... if it contains a URL with say the word PUSH in front of it then it loads in the other frame.
Just a thought. Wouldn't be all that difficult with a little JavaScript.

IN fact thinking it would have to be frames based. Why can't we do this with just sending a link through a chat or something - It can't be that easy. Client wants to push a 2 way communication and sharing of pages between his staff and customers. Again - this particular site is running coldfusion cookies and session variables - they all exist so I can know a little about who someone is when they request. Any page they hit assigns them a cartid and some info is stored in db. jay Ben Doom wrote: >I suppose that it depends on what you mean by 'push'.
