Iframes have certain rules you must follow.

The main page that holds your iframe usually has the links. 
These links change the contents of the iframe by using a target statement. 
If you name your iframe IFRAME1 then your links would have the target:    target="IFRAME1"

Code: [Select]

<a href="http://www.samisite.com/test-csb2nf/id58.htm" target="IFRAME1">Example 1</a>

Those content pages that appear within the iframe may or may not have links on them. Usually not.
You must use your target statement for each link to control where and how they open.
- If you want the links to open a NEW window outside of the existing main page and iframe, then the link should use target="_blank"
- If you want the links to open within the iframe, keeping the existing main page around the contents, then the link should use target="_self"
- If you want the links to open in the same window, replacing the main page that holds the iframe, then the link should use target="_parent" (or possibly target="_top")


Would love to see what you do with the iframe.
