How can I have an RBasic program fource a new HTTP address.
Example;
I have a frame (http://INET_FRAME):
screen one is a menu frame with links that display in screen twoscreen two is a display only page.How can I change the HTTP address in my rbasic program to a non frame screen (IE: HTTP://INET_LOGIN).
Steps the user press on a link on the menu. This run a rbasic program that normally returns a display screen (in screen 2). So normally the HTTP address never changes. Instead I want to transfer the user back to a login screen which has a totally different http address.
My rbasic programs knows to return the login html, but it displays in screen 2. I want to remove the frame and display only the login screen. Any ideas?

Hi Tom,
Not sure exactly how to do this, but this Javascript reference may be of use. http://developer.netscape.com/tech/javascript/index.html
No doubt someone else will be able to tell you the precise code.
best regards,
Andrew.

Tom,
If you had a static login window Login.htm instead of a dynamic one you could achieve what you want with a link
See if you can get this to work with a dynamic HREF as well.
Else you might have to resort to some JavaScript programming.

[notag]Tom,
If you want to use JS, return an HTML page that executes this script:
top.location.href = "./INET_LOGIN"
That should go back to the server load in the form for you..
Alternatively, you could put this in your Login HTML page in the <head> tag:
<script language="JavaScript">
if ( top.location.href != window.location.href )
{
top.location.href = window.location.href;}
</script>

Carl,
Never though of the javascript, but that sounds like the the ticket. Thanks.
Also thanks to Oystein and Andrew for your comments.

Tom,
I checked and my approach does work with a dynamic link.
I used a page Frames.htm with two frames
frames
The content of the leftmost frame - Page.htm - had both static and dynamic links (I used a call to Inet_Trace instead of a call to a function returning a login page, but the principle's the same):
page
static links
dynamic links
