#7 seems to be the same advice. I'll keep looking, though.

The naming convention would be the same, must start with A-Z or a-z, but can be otherwise alphanumeric, no special characters.

You know, I'm not sure. I haven't tried to get xhtml working with a frameset.

There must be some references somewhere, I'll try to find out and report back.

So, I should use iframe id="blah" name="blah" and a href="wherever.html" target="blah". But won't that only be working because of the name attribute? Because if it was only id in there it would just open it in a new window.

Are there any rules I have to follow when when choosing the value of id/name?

Since ID doesn't work for older browsers, you'll have to double up to get it to work, but the problem is validation.

I believe that target itself is deprecated, and you can use client side scripting to control the linking.
