hi,  
i got an html ( **“myHTML1.htm”** ) with with a button the “window.open” other window ( **myHTML2.htm"** ).

**"myHTML1.htm"** is inside a frameset and his frame id is “content”.

i do -

```auto
window.open(myHTML2.htm,"content")

```

so the **“myHTML2.htm”** will be open in the same frame as **“myHTML1.htm”**.

the problem is that it won’t work…  
do you know why? :kir:
