Building frames only if...

[avivit]

I need to create frames only if a certain action occurs, and if not I' don't want
these frames.
I understand I can't create the frameset in advance? Can I create but not show
at all, and later to show the 2 files in it.
Even if I create frameset with zero columns and rows, how can I change the
rows value, when I want the files be in it?
I.e.:


if (ccheckAreAllFine)
{ //open an index with two certain files in it
}
else //If not ok
{ //do something else
}

Hope I'm clear.

Thanks in advance

looks cool. I'll check it out, and hope it works for both browsers (though I saw no special feature that should not work).
Jared, thanks.
U know I always inform about any progress, so "I'll be back".

Thanks, I used your idea for my purposes, as following:

<frameset id=&quot;frameset1&quot; rows=&quot;0,*&quot;> <!--Hidden upper frame)-->
<frame name=&quot;upFrame&quot; src=&quot;stuff.htm&quot;>
<frame name=&quot;downFrame&quot; src=&quot;secondFrame&quot;>
</frameset>

Than, in one of the frame, when trying to change the
rows value, it's not working for netscape 4.7+, but great in ie.
Is there another way to change the rows value in netscape 4+???

for ie:
parent.frameset1.rows = &quot;100,*&quot;;

not sure if netscape 4 CAN have dynamic frames, but my guess is no. Ditch NS4. jared@aauser.com -

Ditch Netscape 6?
This feature does not function for ns6 too.

Ditch it all?

Well, if we could only persuade all ppl to
use one browser (and a certain version of course),
our lives would be so simple (but boring(?))

:--)

Thanks for your great help.

Jared, I must say: U r the only one who gave me a practical solution to my question (I searhed in lots of places for an answer). Thanks for that.

I was too lazy to check the syntax for NN6, since I need it to work for former versions of netsacpe too, and it's impossible for older versions. Anyway, I didn't want 3 versions of stuff there.

So...I kind of...(don't kill me)...
returned to the old fashion safe way, and I built the frameset in advance, when the upper small frame is blank at the beginning.

P.s. - I would like to hear the syntax of nn6 to changing the row value, if there's someone which is less lazy than me.

Hope u r nor disappointed that I did not keep seraching. I just had a way that works (classsic way), only less preferable.
