hyperlink within a frame

I have a web site, www.stjamescemetery.co.uk. My problem is as follows:

All the links on the left hand frame work and direct the user around the
site, however there are several links which open up a seperate site within
the frames, eg, Guestbook and Message Board. Now once these are opened, the
menu bar links appear to be disabled, so a user has to click 'back' to return
to the previous page.

I have scratched my head on this for days, and i know the answer is probably
pretty obvious.

help!
 
In you head section in http://www.stjamescemetery.co.uk/new_page_3.htm
You have <base target="contents">
- that is the name of your left nav frame

But your right frame name is really main
- so in many cases, but not all you have your links set to target="main"
Change the head section target to
<base target="main">

Then check your targets in all your links

PS
Your left frame has no scrollbar so at 800x600 the bottom links are cut off

Hi Stefan

Thanks for the point about the scroll bars. I have put them in now.

I have altered the headings, but it still does not work. If you click on
the Message board for example, the message board will appear in the frame,
now if you try to click on any other button they will not work.

Thanks for the reply
