In addition to these destinies, you can

also set the name of one of the frames

in the Page as one of them, so the page
will be loaded in that frame.

We can add all these destinies to any

element of the Page that has any link,
it can be a text, an image, an image
map, a flash element, etc.
Thanks to this we can make our links
work as we please, loading Pages in
some of the frames, in a new window,
in the whole window, etc.
This task can be difficult and
complicated at the begining, but it
leads to good final results.
