Default Target Frames in Frontpage 03

Hi. Ive been using Frontpage for some time now with no problem. However There is one thing that I can not do. If I have a thumbnail of a picture on my website, and someone presses it for the full image to appear, a new window ("out of the website") comes up with the full image showing. The challenge is that this new window comes with all the scroll bars, toolbars, title bar, menus etc as a normal internet explorer web page. All I really want is just a nice grey border and thats it.

Anyone any ideas where the settings are to change this? Ive found some code to add "Close Window" to the pop up, its just all the borders etc I can not get rid of.

Cheers

Brett

Please don't use frames, they are horrible and crap. Learn CSS, HTML and XHTML, dump Frontpage, the world will be happy

Talking Well thanks very much for that note of wisdom steve.

Unfortunatly I have a full time job as well as managing a holiday villa rental business, so frontpage is easy to use. Ive also had a number of very positive comments about the site so..........

But thanks for reading the post anyway. Its appreciated.

This should work, will probably get blocked with popup blockers though.

Code:
<a href="#" onclick="window.open('ace.htm', 'anynamehere', 'width=150,height=100')">Open</a>

There was no malice in my reply. I couldn't care less if you've had positive comments about your site. I'm sure it looks great and everything, but ignorance towards horrible technologies is widespread amongst those that don't know any better, or care. Frames are ugly and are a potential exploit hazard. They should be avoided at all costs.
