How do I load frames from a link?

The frames looks great when starting from the index page, but when sending
someone a link to a certain page, the frames do not load.

Is there a script missing in the body?

one reason not to use frames...a viewed page may actually be 3, 4 or more
page urls.
same thing happens if a viewer bookmarks your page he'll only see the
unframed page he happened to have his cursor on when bookmarking it.

Isn't there some kind of onload command that you can put in each page that
will load the frames?

You'd need to create some type of redirect script that looks at the incoming
URL and if it isn't a frames page then send them back to one. Do a Google
search for redirect scripts

See http://javascript.internet.com/navigation/dynamic-frameset.html

IMHO don't use frames at all
But if you really must use frames make sure all your links include correct targets to the frame name you want them to open in
To keep users w/i your frame see
http://javascript.internet.com/navigation/force-frames.html
