I'm not really good at web page stuff, so don't laugh/groan too loud if I post a silly question...

I have a web app I'm tring to make - contact management - and we're loading a client side ActiveX alarm to pop-up reminders. The app is designed to come back to the same page many times. What I want to do is load the ActiveX control and have it available for the duration. What's happening is that it's either loading every time I come back to this page, and apparently wiping out my previously set alarms... or it's loading on the first visit to the page and later when I try to set an alarm I get a message indicating the object isn't available.

I've been told by TS for the control, that this is the way it is... OCX, HTML, stateless and what not...

Someone suggested that I try it in a frameset... setting one frame up as static, and the rest of the app in another frame.

TS said they hadn't tried that and didn't know what the result would be.

So.....

I've created the app with frames.
I put a static frame along the top and my OCX alarm is in there.
Now I'm trying to figure out where the scripts go... in the static frame or the dynamic frame...
I would think the scripts that access the alarm control need to be in the static frame with the alarm...

If that's the case, how do I get a button on the dynamic frame, to access the scripts in the static frame?

TIA,
Rick
