I hardly ever use frames and I am working on a project that requires a page using frames. Please look at it and tell me where I've gone wrong. I can't seem to get everything to fit together nicely.

I'm also going to try and use tables to format the layout.

Thanks...

I am not too familiar with frames either so I am not sure if all the code is entirely correct and necessary (some attributes are for Mozilla, others for IE, on both it works fine). First of all, know that you should use fixed widths and heights since you probably don't want your design to fall apart at different screen sizes. Here's the corrected frameset code:
Code: 
<frameset rows=&quot;74px,377px,*&quot; framespacing=&quot;0&quot; frameborder=&quot;no&quot;>
    <frame name=&quot;Top&quot; src=&quot;/EStation/pda/top.asp&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; noresize>
    <frameset  cols=&quot;88px,287px,*&quot; framespacing=&quot;0&quot; frameborder=&quot;no&quot;>
        <frame name=&quot;L-Side&quot; src=&quot;/EStation/pda/L-Side.asp&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; noresize>
        <frame name=&quot;Content&quot; src=&quot;[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.fireadmin.net/EStation/pda/content.asp&quot;[/URL] scrolling=&quot;auto&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; noresize>
        <frame name=&quot;R-Side&quot; src=&quot;/EStation/pda/R-Side.asp&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; noresize>
    </frameset>
    <frame name=&quot;Bottom&quot; src=&quot;/EStation/pda/Bottom.asp&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; noresize>
</frameset>

Hope it helps.

Chris,

That is exactly what I'm trying to accomplish.

I will study your code that utilizes the Iframe and css Float.

Thanks for your help.

I had given up on it.

Again thanks...
