RE: Iframes help
you have named the iframe target  "_mainsection"

code:
<a href="maincontent.html" target="_mainsection">_home</a>

your iframe is named "mainsection"

code:
<iframe   align="top" width="321" height="254" src="maincontent.html" name="mainsection" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>

take away the underscore (_)

it's an easy mistake to make, i wanted to know how to open links in a new window and found target="_blank", you probably got confused with that.. ;)

Are you on a PHP-enabled host? PHP'd make it a lot easier to do what you want to do.

code:
<html>
<body>
<?php echo 'Hello'; ?>
</body>
</html>
Upload that as page.php, and when you view it, if you see the word 'Hello', the host is PHP-enabled.

So now you can consider a PHP-based alternative. Unlike frames, it won't break bookmarks.
