Question How do I find what another frame is called?

I've a problem where I'm trying to create links in ASP based on what the frame below it is called. The top frame will always be in place and the bottom one changes depending on navigation links in the first one.

I want to make links that navigate to the content of each of the pages in the frames. To do that, I need to know the names of the frames and provide it to the ASP so the correct links are displayed.

I created a javascript function which get the name of the frame but obviously now I've learned that javascript (even run in server side mode) doesn't work too well with ASP.

So does anyone have any suggestions as to what I should do or even a solution to the problem I'm facing?

Thanks in advance.

With a little twist, you could make ASP and Javascript talk to each other
Why do you use frame, it is a lot easier if you use CSS+Javascript.

Re: How do I find what another frame is called?

I would love to use CSS but it's an existing site that needs to be maintained for a very picky customer. I guess I can get around it by using Session variables and guessing what the next page in the lower frame will be. Time consuming but I know it will work.

Thanks again.
