i would like to click a link on a frameless page, and enter a frameset with the content frame automatically filled with the url corresponding to the link clicked on the previous page.

i have not yet had success, i tried using the document.referrer element but had no luck.
i do not want different framsets for each link, as this makes my navigation buttons reload each time.

can javascript do this? can i pass a variable along with the url in the <a href> if so how do i retrieve it from the framesest? thank you for any assistance

thanks for the sympathy, yes, frames are not our friends.

but i did manage to figure it out, using the
location.search.substring property of windows.
