Using JavaScript behaviors with frames

There are several JavaScript behaviors and navigation-related commands that are particularly appropriate for use with frames:

Set Text Of Frame
Replaces the content and formatting of a given frame with the content you specify. The content can include any valid HTML. Use this action to dynamically display information in a frame.

Go To URL
Opens a new page in the current window or in the specified frame. This action is particularly useful for changing the contents of two or more frames with one click.

Insert Navigation Bar
Adds a navigation bar to a page; after inserting a navigation bar, you can attach behaviors to its images and set which image displays based on a visitor’s actions. For example, you may want to show a button image in its Up or Down state to let a visitor know which page of a site is being viewed.

Insert Jump Menu
Sets up a menu list of links that open files in a browser window when clicked. You can also target a particular window or frame in which the document opens.
