Does anyone know why a url would appear on the browser as the same regardless of which page the person is viewing? For example, client website www.ctfalliance.org. No matter what page one is on the address remains the same, i.e., if I'm on the About Us page, instead of the address showing up as www.ctfalliance.org/aboutus, it just reads www.ctfalliance.org.

I've been told 2 different reasons and I'm frustrated trying to resolve it on my own. Spent a couple hours trying to figure this out and should have come here in the first place. I have that much confidence in you all. Thanks.

Hi

I don't know why but this site is framing an entire site.

In other words, this site is using an HTML frame to frame another site which is: https://www.msu.edu/user/nactpf/index.htm

The code they used to do this is:

Code:

<frameset rows="100%,*" frameborder="0"> <frame name="top" src="http://www.msu.edu/user/nactpf/index.htm" noresize="noresize"> <frame name="domainmanager" src="about:blank" noresize="noresize"> <noframes> <body> Click here for <a href="www.msu.edu/user/nactpf/index.htm">CTF Alliance</a><hr> </body> </noframes> </frameset>

I hope this helps

Codehead, how did you do that? I was told to look for a frameset but to be honest I'm such a neophyte in the website coding I couldn't even figure out how to find it.

The site is being transferred to a regular host server (hostgator) so no need for the msu.edu "stuff" any longer. What do you think will happen if I remove that frameset? And again, where is that code?

Thanks so much for your speedy response. Trish.

It's hard to say what happens, I don't know how they made it, if the URLs are absolute or relative, but basically to move the msu.edu site, you must move all the files on msu.edu, since all the content is there.

To find the frameset, connect to www.ctfalliance.org using FTP and look for a file called "index.html", "index.htm", "index.php", "default.asp" or "default.aspx" - look in all the subfolders but mostly something like "www" or "public_html" - then edit it and you will see the frameset and if you remove the frameset, everything magically disappears and you will see a white page.
