Hi there,

With the info you have given it is a bit hard to know what could be the problem, so some more information would be good.

Is the page just a static html page with the two frames and the links in the menu just hardcoded in there or is it an aspx page with a dynamic menu or something like that?

How long has it been working before this problem appeared?

Has it worked before for the users who now have a problem?

What browser does the users with the problem use and have they recently upgraded (to IE 7 or something like that)?

hi

its aspx page with two frameset inside , its working fine in my system , and other collegues , this happens especially with one user , Its been hard to convince the user that its the browser issue .

In this specific case when ever the user clicks the Left frame ( which contain the menu) the browser navigates to the desired page but not within the frame instead the menu frame gets dissapear and the page loads as a seprate page ....

need to figure out the IE settings which restircts the the frame ..

the user uses IE....

does it makes thinks clear for you ...?


If possible... You may want to re-think using frames with ASP.Net. You may be able to achieve the same results through master pages...

Frames are pretty much evil any way you cut it, but you might want to check the IIS logs and see if the menu is being re-requested and not appearing or if it might be a problem with browser caching.

And yes, there are ways to have this same design effect in a dynamic page withjout frames. Master pages would be a great use here.

Its an Enterprise application running across our global customer for past 2-3 years , changing it to masterpage will be diffcult task in getting the approvalSad
