hi,

I have a web site that is 750 px wide, centered in the browser window, valign="top"

I want to divide the site into 2 frame cols.

still only 750 px and centered...I can't figure out how to do this?? I know its possible because I have seen it done.





 
Well, you could specify two frames, each of which is 50% of the screen (both would be width="*"), then the left page would be a 375px-wide fixed-width layout, aligned to the right, and the right page would be a 375px-wide fixed-width layout, aligned to the left. You can adjust the widths, but that's the basic idea.

IMHO, you and your site's visitors would be much happier with a fluid layout.
 
<frameset cols=&quot;*,750,*&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;>
<frame src=&quot;&quot;>
<frameset rows=&quot;350,350&quot;>
<frame src=&quot;&quot;>
<frame src=&quot;&quot;>
</frameset>
<frame src=&quot;&quot;>
</frameset>

is that what u want ?

yes, this is what i want...thanks for all the ideas. cols is what I want. but I also want a border around the entire web site..this is the problem.



so..750 px wide, centered in the browser. the site is divided into 2 frame cols.

how can i get the border around the web site, but not between the 2 framesets....just a box around the whole thing??
