Strange _target attribute added to IFRAMEs

[Chris Kinata]

Hi all,

Validated a page, and got a note that IFRAME doesn't support
the TARGET attribute.

Went back to FP2003 to look at the HTML, and indeed, there
it was. Now the strangeness...the MSDN library doesn't list
TARGET as an attribute; see

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...dhtml/reference/objects/iframe.asp?frame=true

I keep deleting it, but each time I save the page, it reappears
as target="_self"! What's up with this?

Signed,
Mystified

You get the error because the doctype you use doesn't support frames.
The Validator you used should have mentioned this as the probable
cause.
You can read more about doctypes at http://www.w3.org/
