Here is a quick and dirty solution to the problem. This is from Homesite
4.5's scripts tab. Since I am using the script from there (which I believe
is public domain) I'll also give a quick plug for the product, it is an
excellent HTML editor.
<!-- frame buster - code by Gordon McComb -->
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!-- Hide script from older browsers
setTimeout ("changePage()", 3000);
function changePage() {
if (self.parent.frames.length != 0)
self.parent.location=document.location;
}
// end hiding contents -->
</script>
What this will do is cause your page to "bust out" of the frame if anyone
links to you in the manner you describe.
