Synopsis
Read/Write
The name of the window or frame that is to receive content as the
result of navigating to an area link. Such names are assigned to
frames by the FRAME
element’s
NAME
attribute; for subwindows, the name is
assigned via the second parameter of the window.open( )
method. If you are scripting the navigation of another
window or frame, use the window or frame name in a statement that
assigns a new URL to the location.href
property
(frameName
.location.href
=
"
newURL
"
).
Example
document.all.homeArea.target = "_top"
Value
String value of the window or frame name, or any of the following
constants (as a string): _parent
|
_self
| _top
|
_blank
. The _parent
value
targets the frameset to which the current document belongs; the
_self
value targets the current window; the
_top
value targets the main browser window,
thereby eliminating all frames; and the _blank
value creates a new window of default size.
Default
None.
