I have a frame that contains links that navigate to an entirely new view. However, it seems that pre-fetching doesn’t work on them because they are within a frame. I’m using the following attributes on the links:

```auto
<turbo-frame id="someid">
    <a 
        target="_top"
        data-turbo-frame="_top"
        data-turbo-action="advance"
        href="/"
    >
        my link
    </a>
</turbo-frame>

```

but still turbo doesn’t enable pre-fetching when hovering over the links.

Is there a way I can override this behavior and make those links pre-fetch on hover?

Ok, I’ve found the issue: removing `target="_top"` solved it
