Hello!

I have a small question for that module. I'm new on DotNetNuke platform and i'm trying to build a new web site for personal use!My DotNetNuke version is 04.09.00.

Please read the "quick" informations (that are showing below) first:

1) I have create a New page (with the name "Main") that contains a "Links" module. The "Links" module is located at the "Left Pane" of "Main" page and contains only one link with the name "LinkToPage1". That link is a HREF to "Page1" (see info 3).

2) In the same page ("Main"), at the "Content Pane", i've put a "Text/HTML" module that contains no text.

3) I have create a new page also that contains some text (in Text/HTML module) with the name "Page1".

All i want to do is this:

By pressing some user the "LinkToPage1" link, i want the DotNetNuke to show the "Page1" in the "Content Pane" area, inside the "Text/HTML" module. How can i do that? There isn't any "Target" value in the settings of the "Links" module to say in which frameset i want to appear my "Page1"...

Please help me with that, or please tell me some other way to do that!

Thank you very very much!

setting a target for a link is only possible when using frames (otherwise the only usefull target is _blank for a new window). Since dnn does not use frames, using targets is pointless

Thank you very much ErikVB!

All right, i understand that the DNN does not use Frames so i can't use the target value for that.

Is there any other way to do this?

I was try to do with the pair of modules Links-iFrame, but it didn't work. I was found an another module (the "Help" module) that doing something congener, but its not exactly what i want. If you tell me a way for Erase or Change the "Folder" icon of the Help module, i think it would be a good solution for the beggining.

 

Please ErikVB (or anyone else),

if you think that you know any other solution for my problem, answer me as soon as possible!!

 

Thank you!
