View Full Version : Frame question

Yeah, yeah, yeah . . . frames are generally icky.[nbsp][nbsp]However, that's what layout this client would like.[nbsp][nbsp]I've honestly not worked much with them, due to general distaste.

Re:[nbsp][nbsp]http://www.bearfootdesign.com/roverjon/

Can I get rid of the tiny white border, showing between the top frame, and the bottom frames?[nbsp][nbsp]I want that blue stuff to be seamless.[nbsp][nbsp]Can I use a border attribute of some sort - I presume, in the <frame= or <frameset= tags - and color it to match the blue areas? (Which are all table background graphics themselves, if it matters.)

TIA.

I hate frames.[nbsp][nbsp]Did I mention this??

I can't see the white border you speak of.. I am using IE5.5sp1.
I use the HTML reference from http://www.htmlib.com/ for looking up info on tags and find it invaluable.

Personally, I'm currently into using PHP to replicate frame-type layouts without actually using frames

Thanks for pointing out that it is indeed just a NS thing.[nbsp][nbsp]Rats.

*Thinks about diving into PHP but good . . . *

Unless I've read your post wrong, I can see the white border, using IE 5.5 SP1...take a look:

That would indeed be the space I'm referring to, thanks for the screenshot, Fred!

Okay.. I don't see the 'gap' in IE 5.5 but I do in NN 4.74 (I'm sure I had 4.75.. someones been playing silly beggars) and NN6. just don't ask about NN2, you really don't want to know. I couldn't be bothered firing up any more.. Netscape is always a pain when it comes to HTML compatibility, but I'd've thought NN6 would fare better.. Mozzy M14 did no better.

Mandi!

Make top_left_corner.gif 80 pixels wide by, say, 30 pixels high.

And in both the top and left framed pages, make sure you have leftmargin=&quot;0&quot; topmargin=&quot;0&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; in the <body> tags.

I think that will do it....

The purple table in your top frame is not high enough. You can either make add an additional purple row to the table or make your top frame smaller.

Best would be to get rid of frames because they always give you these kind of unexpected problems.

It worked, it worked!![nbsp][nbsp]Margin settings in the body tag, huh?[nbsp][nbsp]Exactly where have *I* been??[nbsp][nbsp](Obviously, avoiding frames, LOL[nbsp][nbsp]. . .)

Thanks :)!
