Give the frames names: for examples <frame name='anyName'> and use the
target attribute of the <a>-tag (<a href="..." target='anyName'>) to load
the document specified with href="...".
With javascript try super./parent.location.href = ...; in a sub-frame of
_top (super or parent: I'm not really sure which one but one is correct)

Subject: servlet to set the target for the frame in the browser
> Hi,
>
> Does anybody know if it is possible for a servlet to setup the target for
the frame of the browser during processing?
>
> The situation:
> The user clicks to load a page: normally the page is loaded into the
center frame:
> but if the session has expired a login page shall be shown and this page
should be loaded into the _top frame (=the complete browser window).
>
> Now I am doing this with the following JAVASCIPT command set in the login
page:
>
> if (window != top) top.location.href = location.href;
>
> It works: but the problem is that this JAVASCRIPT command leads to a new
servlet request:
> and if you had originally used a POST request all the posted data is lost
and I also need that data for the login page.
> With a GET request it works.
>
> So is there a solution where the servlet during its processing can change
the frame target e.g. in case the session has expired?
