HTML frames question

Hopefully one of you will be able to figure out why I cannot get my link to open in the main frame on my frameset... this is the code:
[img]homebutton.jpg[/img]

main.html is an already created file that I want to open, the button(homebutton) is appearing fine, in the index.html file where I created my frameset, one document the nav. doc is called toc.html and the other is called welcome.html, I also gave it a name=welcome..however, the link is opening in the navigation frame not the welcome frame??

What is you home page? Liz

you mean the home page of the website? well it is welcome.html. Well let me go back the frameset is divided into two frames toc.html and welcome.html, is that what you are asking?

No, the exact url...go to the web site and do a copy and paste of it into here.

My home page is: http://www.geocities.com/southernlady5464/index.html

What you are giving me is like me giving you the index.html Liz

do you have a frame called welcome?
if so your HTML should read:

Code:

<a href="main.html" target="welcome"> 
     [img]homebutton.jpg[/img]
</a>

Now whenever anyone clicks on the image it will open main.html in the frame named welcome
