Frames Fixed Width Size -- Help

ee222 · #1 (**permalink**) 07-17-2008, 08:49 PM

Hello,

I am working on a web site and it has 5 frames. I want to make the left and right frames to be a fixed width size. For example, the width is 125.

But when I change the size of the IE window the left and right frames also change. So, Can someone tell me how chagen the FRAMESET elements?

Here is the web site's URL: http://www.uswebcity.com/temp/frames/

Here is the html code:
<html>
<head>
<title>New Frames Website</title>
</head>

<frameset rows="60,*,30" border="0" frameborder="0">
<frame name="top1" frameborder='0' framespacing='0' scrolling="no"
noresize="noresize" target="contents" src="top.html">

<frameset cols="125,710,125">
<frame name="lc-window" frameborder='0' framespacing='0' scrolling="no" resize="no"
target="main" src="left.html">

<frameset rows="28,*">
<frame name="l-window" frameborder='0' framespacing='0' scrolling="no" resize="no"
noresize="noresize" target="main" src="menu.html">

<frame name="r-window" frameborder='0' framespacing='0' src="main.html">

</frameset>
<frame name="right-contents" frameborder='0' framespacing='0' resize="no"
scrolling="no" noresize="noresize" target="main" src="right.html">
</frameset>

<frame name="bottom" frameborder='0' framespacing='0' scrolling="no" noresize
target="main" src="bottom.html">

<noframes>
<body>
<p>This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them.</p>
</body>
</noframes>

</frameset>
</html>

Thanks.

I haven't used Frames in ages. Unless something's changed, web crawlers have trouble with them. Anyhow, to answer your question, try the code below.

<frameset rows="60,*,30" border="0" frameborder="0">
<frame name="top1" frameborder='0' framespacing='0' scrolling="no"
noresize="noresize" target="contents" src="top.html">

<frameset cols="125,100*,125">
<frame name="lc-window" frameborder='0' framespacing='0' scrolling="no" resize="no"
target="main" src="left.html" noresize>

<frameset rows="28,*">
<frame name="l-window" frameborder='0' framespacing='0' scrolling="no" resize="no" target="main" src="menu.html">

<frame name="r-window" frameborder='0' framespacing='0' scrolling="no" src="main.html">

</frameset>
<frame name="right-contents" frameborder='0' framespacing='0' resize="no"
scrolling="no" noresize="" target="main" src="right.html">
</frameset>

<frame name="bottom" frameborder='0' framespacing='0' scrolling="no" noresize
target="main" src="bottom.html">

</noframes>

</frameset>
