I have a main page that calls a sub page (see code below) and in the  
controller I just set link1, link2, and link3 to be some hard coded  
test pages, but when i view the frames page below all the frames are  
empty. If I move the hard code links into the place of link1,2,3 then  
it works fine, but i want to use variables as I want the frames to  
display different things depentent on user variables. Does this make  
sense? Thanks
