onclick to load on parent.parent frame

[rachelason]

Hi Can someone help me on this...
I have a link which on click loads on the parent.parent frame.. the problem iam having is, it first loads on the current page then refreshes to load on the parent frame. What should i change in the code to avoid this?

<a onclick="parent.parent.location.href=this.href;" href="/ssl/content/property.html" name="propr" value="2" class="text"><img src="/ssl/image/prop1.jpg" height="100" width="120" alt="Property Image" border="1"></a>

thanks
Rach

<a onclick="parent.parent.location.href=this.href;location.href='/ssl/content/property.html';return false;" href="javascript:;" name="propr" value="2" class="text">

vbkris - for some variation (and to prevent people thinking I have a typo when using :; I have started recommending that people use ://; instead:

<a href="javascript://;"...

Just another way to do the same thing really
