Change The Contents Of Two Frames

I have a simple frameset of two columns; the first having two rows. By default (if I am correct) a browser sees the first frame as [0], the next as [1], and then [2], and so on for as many frames in the frameset. This code works fine by clicking on the button, the second row of the first column changes, as well as the content in column two.<form><input type="button" Value="Chapter 1" onClick="parent.frames[1].location='sublinks1.htm'; parent.frames[2].location='chap1.htm';"></form>What I want to do is this very same action, but with a typical text link or image, not a forms button. I've tried the <a onCLick=".....">Chapter 1</a> but it doesn't recognize the sctipt between the <a> tags. Any suggestions?Thanks! :lol:

warbird that would only change one frame. i think the right way to go at this is in javascript.

put this code into the <head> tag:

<script language="JavaScript">function links1(){parent.frame1.location="sublinks1.htm";parent.frame2.location="chap1.htm";}</SCRIPT>

and then you would put this code into the <body> tag where you want your link to be. 

<A HREF="javascript:links1()">Chapter 1</A>

then you just have to watch out to name your frames frame1 and frame2 or whatever you want to call them but change it in the javascript.
