I need to advise someone how remove a frameset from a site for Search Engine Optimisation.

http://www.********.com/index.html ;jsessionid=4876BDAFC4B02DC423F3384B673B64A9

For example.

When I view the source I get a frameset.

Code:
<frameset framespacing="0" frameborder="0" rows="*,0,0">
<frame name="main" src="homepage/welcome.html">
<frame src="menu/menu.html" name="menu">
<frame src="settings.html" name="settings">
<noframes>

So I try and access the main frame....

http://www.********.com/homepage/welcome.html

I get redirected to this.

http://www.********.com /index.html?main=/homepage/welcome.html


I'm intending to ask for FTP access (of course), but I'd really like to be able to view the source of the frames first.

Thanks in advance.

jsessionid = java ( ? ), which could mean the developer used Cold Fusion?

Thanks in advance.

Have you tried viewing the site with JavaScript disabled? A lot of frame-based sites use it to do an onload check to ensure the current page is sitting in the correct frameset.

Bingo! I'm in.

Thanks Simon. (once again)

As a side note I was wanting to dedicate my 1000th post to those that have offerred so much help in this forum over the years, mucho gracias.

( except I ended up using my 1000th in a Brady Bunch thread *shrugs* )

..... and here was the offending code

Code:
function checkFrames() {
    if (parent.frames.length == 0) {
        location.pathname = "index.html?main=" + location.pathname;
    }
}
