[albatross-users] Query regarding frames

Thu Nov 21 02:17:10 EST 2002

Frames are really just separate calls to the webserver, so they really
wouldn't cause the problem.  Most likely apache (or whatever server you
are using) is not handing off the frame URL's to your app.  Try going to
/templates/client_top.html directly and see if the tags are parsed.  If
not, check your setup to make sure things in the templates dir is set to
your app.

Sorry if that's vauge, but there are several ways you can setup
albatross and apache to work together, so I'd need more info to see the
exact problem.
