If you place a link inside an IFrame you must use the "target="_parent" " parameter to ensure that it opens in the parent browser window Reopen in parent window otherwise it will open in the Iframe and visitors can end up in complete confusion with Iframes opening in Iframes. Also be aware that these pages in an IFrame do appear as "orphaned pages" in search engine results pages so to avoid this happening a little bit of javascript should be added to the IFrame content to ensure that the parent page opens. This is applied to the Iframe page below. So clicking on this plain link will open the page without the parent page and the navigation.
