Hi all,Well, the problem I saw with your site, is that the menu is much bigger than it needs to be for its small content. This way, when one takes a small window for your site, a giant nav frame covers the content, which is not appropriate for the content.Using percent might make the problem a little bit smaller, but in general I agree with guy saying that frames shouldn't be used, since they are deprecated by the W3C and bad for many people's view.You can easily implement the permanent ...

I tried, but it says that your URL can't be found. (I tried with and without http:// and it doesn't work).

Okay ... now that the link's working for me ...


What do you mean, the right frame is blocking the main frame? It shows up fine on my computer.

Or do you mean that you want to kill the scrollbar? I'm confused.

Mods: please kill my last post - I was wrong.


Anyway ...


okay, I see what you mean now that I've *seriously* resized the window.

I looked at your source code and it looks like you've left the frame widths in a variable state by using an asterisk (*). That might be the problem.

Just to see if that really has anything to do with it, I checked my site by re-sizing my window. I use frames too, but I give them specific definitions (20,80 percent is usually what I go with - but I'm only using a nav frame on the left and a main frame on the right, not as many as you're using).

So ... I think that you can try definining frame widths with specific percentages. You might have to experiment a little to get what you feel is the right ratio for each frame, but it should work out.

ok the first question I would have to ask in able to help you is:

Are you using a CMS and if so which one, or are you just writing all the PHP/HTML/XML/etc yourself?

After getting the answer to that question I would then go with Sarah81's suggestion of changing to a specific percentages rather then locked percentages or locked pixel settings due to the fact that different people use different resolution settings on their computers.

The only problem with helping you out is that it looks like your using a CMS and as such you might have to reset your CSS which might be a problem.

Hi, there are different way to do so. If you will take a look at the html code of your frameset for example:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/frameset.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Unbenanntes Dokument</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

<frameset rows="*,700,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="top.htm" name="topFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize >
<frameset cols="*,960,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="left.htm" name="leftFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize>
<frame src="f0_00.htm" name="mainFrame">
<frame src="right.htm" name="rightFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize>
</frameset>
<frame src="bot.htm" name="bottomFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize>
<frame src="UntitledFrame-5" name="bottomFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize>
</frameset>
<noframes><body>

</body></noframes>
</html>

You are able to fix the size of frames:
<frameset rows="*,700,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
Within thsi row the middle frame is fixed on 700 pixel and the others will fit to the screen.
Maybe this will help to fix your problem. So if you fix the Mainframe and unfix your right frame the problem might be solved!

Maybe you can post your frameset, so I can give you some further advice.

Good luck

Daniel

You can easily implement the permanent parts with serverside includes or PHP, we can show you if you want to.
good luck,
Ruben

PS.: I don't know why you would need to post the source code for your frameset, because everyone can see it on your site.
