I have a page that sometimes gets displayed in a frame and sometimes in the main window. I want it to be display differently (with a header) when its not in a frame. Is there a way I can do this? I don't suppose the name of the target frame gets passed to the browser does it? Presumably the only way to do this would be to do it in client-side code and fecth the header if appropriate and filter it to make it what is needed. Or is it?

I meant to say "passed to the web server"

It can be done in server-side code, if you know when you put the document in a frame or not. Something like the following might help: In the document in question, do some code like: <dtml-if in_frame> ...display definitely in frame <dtml-elif not_in_frame> ...display definitely not in frame <dtml-else> ...default display, which may be the same as one of the above </dtml-if> You will probably want to factor out the duplicated content into subsidiary methods. Now, if you want the default view, call it as <dtml-var mydoc> If you want it in its frame view, call it as <dtml-var "mydoc(_.None, _, in_frame=1)"> You might want to make a dtml method called e.g. myframedoc with the above code so you can call it as a url. <frame src="myframedoc" title="blah"> Another way is to call the document in HTTP:get format in the frameset. like: <frame src="mydoc?in_frame=1"> Regards, -- Jim Washington Andy Heath wrote:
