Iframes and links

I have my site set up where I have three actual pages with the content inside an iframe (i have about 6 or so content pages). I have one page that loads all my news, services, clients, etc. pages into an iframe, a page that loads all my tutorial pages into an iframe and a page that loads all my downloads pages into an iframe and all the pages have the same nav system. What I want to know is, when I am on my downloads or tutorials page how can I make the button (for example the Services button) on the nav system link back to the main page with the services page loaded in the iframe. Is this possible? Or do I need to redesign my layout? My site is here. Any help is appreciated.

er....
why do you reload the mainpage for every click, if you have the content that needs to be changed inside an iframe?
That's the whole point with frames...NOT having to load everything else all over again... o_O

Then again...it's 99% probable I misunderstood your question and the point in this whole thing.. *whistles and walks away in sweet ignorence* :D

...............and if you don't KNOW how to link TO and iframe.. this is how:

Name your frames. Example:
[PHP]

[/PHP]

Then, in your links use:
[PHP]
Hikhik
[/PHP]


....

Haha!

I don't reload the main page. Like I said, the main page loads all the content for the services, clients, etc. in an iframe (the reason I'm using iframes is, like you said, so I don't have to reload the main page every time). But the problem is, the tutorials and downloads main pages are different from the other one. I want to know how to make the, for example, services page link back to the main page but with the services content loaded in the iframe.

You could always use PHP to do what you want and pass the page you want loaded into an IFRAME via a query string then echo the value of the query string to the IFRAME tag. Or you could always ask Paavo.

Thanks for the reply Hunkorama, but I can't use PHP. The banner ad script I am running uses SSI.
