[albatross-users] Query regarding frames

Thu Nov 21 10:54:09 EST 2002

Michael, 

I loaded client_top.html directly, instead of through the frame

	def page_display(self, ctx):
		#ctx.run_template('client_frontpage.html')
		ctx.run_template('client_top.html')

and this worked, which means that the template directory is fine and the
tags are being parsed directly.

I am sure the problem lies in the frame HTML tag 
<FRAME marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" name="top"
src="/templates/client_top.html"></FRAME>

where the src bit isn't interpolated.

Any ideas ?
