Adding a Tabbed Table to a Navigator

There seems to be a restriction in adding a tabbed table to the navigator of a Notes database with a web front end. Here’s what I’ve done:

  1. Added a tabbed table to a navigator. (The navigator contains hotspots that open views or another navigator if a tab is clicked.)

  2. Embedded the navigator onto a page.

  3. Created a frameset with a frame that references the page.

The frameset has two frames - the left one contains the navigator and the right one should display the views. In the properties of the left frame, I specified the name of the right frame in the ‘Default target for links in frame’. This ensures that when a hot spot for a view is clicked, the view is opened in the right frame. The problem is this - if the hot spot on a tab is clicked, a new navigator is also opened in the right frame rather than in the left frame. Is there a means of preventing this from occurring?

Thanks.

Subject: @SetTargetFrame

Use a formula to open the navigator and use @SetTargetFrame(“LeftFrame”) as the first line.

(You might try using a page with a two-column table instead of a frameset. Embed the navigator in the left-hand cell and embed the view in the right-hand cell. I find this much easier to manage than a frameset (though I’ve only used an outline in the left-hand cell rather than a navigator.)
