    Question Carousel Slideshow script Help Please ASAP

    Hi all.
    I知 using the above script and think its great but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to get the link to load in my mainframe instead of the page it痴 in.

    I have managed to get it to load in a new window but I知 stuck! I have not used java in abt 5 years so I知 way out of practice.

    Please see the code below and note that it is in the menu frame of my site.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    <script type="text/javascript">

    Default

    Where you have:

    Code:
    Car_Image_Sources=new Array(
    "images/roll over/news.gif", "LINK:myPage.htm" ,
    "images/roll over/promo.gif","http://www.javascriptkit.com",
    "images/roll over/recipe.gif","", //this slide isn't linked
    "images/roll over/Mike1.gif","http://www.codingforums.com" // NOTE No comma after last line
    );
    That won't do anything unless you have a page named LINK:myPage.htm, which I believe is an illegal filename. The space before the trailing comma might be a problem too.

    Try:

    Code:
    Car_Image_Sources=new Array(
    "images/roll over/news.gif", "myPage.htm",
    "images/roll over/promo.gif","http://www.javascriptkit.com",
    "images/roll over/recipe.gif","", //this slide isn't linked
    "images/roll over/Mike1.gif","http://www.codingforums.com" // NOTE No comma after last line
    );
    To get it to open in your main frame, the main frame must have a name:

    Code:
    <frame name="mainframe" src="whatever.htm" . . .
    Once you have that, you can change this part:

    Code:
    function C_LdLnk(){if(this.lnk)window.open(this.lnk)}
    to:

    Code:
    function C_LdLnk(){if(this.lnk)window.open(this.lnk, 'mainframe')}
    and Bob's your uncle. If you need more help:

    Please post a link to the page on your site that contains the problematic code so we can check it out.
