It should be used wherever possible on sites with this type of file structure to ensure viewers can bookmark any sub page on the site.

<meta http-equiv="Window-target" content="_top">
<!--This META tag is part 1 of the manual break out of frames code-->
<A HREF="index.html" target="_main">Click here to out of someone else's frames</a>
<!--This Anchor tag is part 2 and must be inlcuded in the BODY section-->
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

<a target="_main">a to force anchor target main window
Automatic Java Script to break out of a frame
<script language="JavaScript" type="text⁄javascript">
<!--
if (window != top) top.location.href = location.href;
⁄⁄ -->
<⁄script>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content=" x ; URL=http:⁄⁄Go_Here_Instead.com">
Use this meta tag as a automatic redirect to another page. The 'x' represents the number of seconds to wait and is usually set to zero or a very low value. Note that some browsers allow users to disable this feature, so the body must include a link to the desired site.
JavaScript based page refresher

Although you can right-click on a floppy drive in Explorer or My Computer and select Format to format a floppy, there's a better way. Type Format a: /u at the MS-DOS prompt (substitute A: for whatever drive letter you wish). Using DOS instead of Windows to format floppies will yield better multitasking, meaning you'll be able to do other things while formatting floppies (strange how it multitasks DOS better than Windows). Furthermore, using the /u paramter specifies an unconditional format, meaning that it won't save unformat information, yielding a faster format and more free diskette space. To simply erase a floppy, type Format a: /u/q - this is much quicker than a full format, but will not ensure an error-free disk (see General Troubleshooting Techniques for more information). Remember, if Format reports any bad sectors, throw away that floppy immediately.
