Frame web sites and I.E 7.0

[Wowmediacash]

HI All, we did this site a few years ago www.ppiservices.com.au
it has not been touched since etc and all of a sudden the clients having complaints from people using I.E 7.0 (6.0 is ok) eg when you click on the links they are opening up in the same left window etc
Why though ! Anyone clever ?

In your links in the left frame you need to set your target_ frame.

Try googling ie7 frames, you'll find a number of issues. I quickly found this one:

"A feature dating back to the Internet's HTML 3.0 era is causing problems for Internet Explorer 7, forcing Microsoft to issue an update for Windows Vista just one day after its public launch. Web sites using frames causes IE7's phishing filter to evaluate the page multiple times simultaneously, leading to high CPU usage.

Microsoft encourages anyone experiencing this issue, which might not be obvious except to knowledgeable computer users, to download the update. A patch for IE7 on Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 will arrive during February's Patch Tuesday next week, although a direct download is available now from the Knowledge Base article."

But I found other issues regarding frames.
