Let me give a diagram that will hopefully make it clearer

  • When you first load the page you are in the _top context (no frame selected yet)

  • To click an item on the menu you would select the menu frame (f_menu), then you Click Link Link 1, so far nice and easy

  • the menu item Link 1 caused a new form to load in the content frame (f_content), now you want to fill in fields 1-3

    • first you use Unselect Frame to leave the f_menu frame
    • next you Select Frame f_context
    • now you can fill in fields 1 to 3

  • now you want to fill in filed 1.3 and 1.6

    • first you Select Frame f_context_1
    • now you can fill in fields 1.3 and 1.6

  • now you want to fill in filed 7.2 and 7.3

    • first you use Unselect Frame to leave the f_context_1 frame
    • now you are back at _top
    • next you Select Frame f_context
    • then you Select Frame f_context_7
    • now you can fill in fields 7.2 and 7.3

  • now you want to fill in filed 8.1 and 8.2

    • first you use Unselect Frame to leave the f_context_7 frame
    • now you are back at _top
    • next you Select Frame f_context
    • now you can click Tab8, which will hide frame f_context_7 and show f_context_8
    • then you Select Frame f_context_8
    • now you can fill in fields 8.1 and 8.2

Hopefully that make it clearer,

Dave.
