Topic: Logging in fails in frameset (IE)

A friend of mine installed 1.2.10 a couple of days ago. He uses a .be domain with domainforwarding (creates a frame on the domain page). Whenever a user with IE tries to log on from the domain he gets the message he's logged in, gets redirected to the main page and isn't logged in. It works fine without the domain's frameset tho.

Any idea what the problem might be? (except for not using IE, as most of his class, what the forum is for, probably is to stupid to get Firefox)

Not a bug so moving to troubleshooting.

Re: Logging in fails in frameset (IE)

I dont know if this will help but it seems that it would work.

It's a "break out of frames" script which also prevents your site from being put into a third-party frame. 

<script>
<!--
if (window!= top)
top.location.href=location.href
// -->
</script>

Not exactly proper coding ethics but it should get the job done.
