external linking from frames

Hi,<br />
<br />
I have a simple frame setup, one for navigation and one that is the "main".<br />
<br />
I am trying to link to an external site from the main frame, no matter what it always puts my relative path.<br />
<br />
<a href=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"www.somewhere_else.com">go</a><br />
<br />
it will insert "www.ramonred.net/projects" (which is where my framed pages are located) before the <br />
<!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.somewhere_else">www.somewhere_else</a><!-- w -->, so it never works. I have tried<br />
putting ../.. before the url, that doesn't work. I have tried putting a target="_top", but that just opens a new window, and still tries to go to the bogus url.<br />
<br />
I am mystified, does anyone know about this?<br />
<br />
thanks.<!--content-->put http:// in front of the address you want to go to.<!--content-->
