OK, there's a couple of different ways of doing this, dependent on which
program flow you wish to implement. A fairly generic way is something like
this (DHTML of course, doesn't have anything to do with the server-side of
things):
<!- index.htm FRAMESET -->
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>FrameNav</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
var mFrame = "main.htm";
var redirectFrame = location.search.substr(1).split("=");
if (redirectFrame[1]) {
mFrame = redirectFrame[1];
}
document.write('<frameset rows="200, *" frameborder="1" ><frame name="top"
src="top.htm" /><frame name="main" src=' + mFrame + ' /></frameset>');
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
<!-end of index.htm -->
<!-foo.htm The file to be redirected -->
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>foo.htm</title>
</head>
<body>
This is foo!<br/><br/>
<script type="text/javascript">
if (top == self) {
window.location.replace("index.htm?url=" + location.pathname);
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
<!-end of foo.htm -->
I assume this does what you were looking for (by the way, this may require
IE5.5 and NS6.0; to make it more generic you need to implement the split()
function yourself)

Peter,
Thanks, however I do have 1 more question for you. I do have the top frame
saying request.getRemoteUser, but how do I automatically cause that frame
to get refreshed when a user first log's in? On logout, I can do that
because it accesses logout.jsp (just issue a JavaScript Refresh command.)
Thanks!
