Setting a frame’s initial document

Each frame in a frameset must have an initial document—the document that appears in the frame when the frameset is first opened in a browser.

To set the initial document for a frame
  • If you are composing the initial document in the frame, simply save the document. The initial document URL will be set automatically.
  • If you want to set the initial document to an existing document, do this:
    1. Click inside the frame to make it active. (The active frame is shown with a blue border.)
    2. On the Layout menu, go to the Tool group, and then click Open Document in Frame.
    3. Select a local file or enter a URL in the URL box and press Enter.

Each time you open a document in a frame, Namo WebEditor sets the initial document for that frame to the opened document.

To view the initial document URL for a frame
  1. Click inside the frame to make it active. (The active frame is shown with a blue border.)
  2. On the Layout menu, go to the Property group, and then click Frame Properties.

The initial document URL is shown in the Source path box.
