Modify Hyperlink Properties
 Click the Code (Show Code View) tab. Locate the hyperlink tag that you created in the &quot;Create the Hyperlink&quot; section earlier in this article, for example:

SomePage

 Insert the following onClick attribute between .htm&quot; and > in the anchor tag:

onClick=&quot;parent.frames[n].location.href='URL';&quot;

where  indicates the number of the frame where you want the resource to appear and   is the Uniform Resource Locator of the page that you want to appear in that frame, for example:

SomePage

Note that because frame numbers start at zero, parent.frames[2] indicates the third frame in a collection.

Note You may receive an error message if you copy the examples directly from this article and paste them into FrontPage 2003. The angle brackets may appear as escaped HTML code (&lt; and &gt). To work around this behavior, paste the script into a blank Notepad document, and then copy it from Notepad before you paste it into FrontPage 2003. On the File menu, click Save.</ol>
