o.k
here goes. i have a frameset with the following code:
Code: 
<html>
<head>
<title>Welcome to Viamore India</title>
<meta http-equiv=&quot;Content-Type&quot; content=&quot;text/html; charset=iso-8859-1&quot;>
</head>
<frameset rows=&quot;114,*&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; framespace=&quot;0&quot;>
<frame name=&quot;topframe&quot; src=&quot;check.html&quot; framespace=&quot;0&quot;>
<frame name=&quot;bottomframe&quot; src=&quot;blank.html&quot; framespace=&quot;0&quot;>
</frameset>
<noframes>
<body bgcolor=&quot;#FFFFFF&quot; text=&quot;#000000&quot;>
</body>
</noframes>
</html>

check.html is an html page that has an empty table of height 114px (all margins are 0)
blank.html is as the name suggests blank.

the problem is that in IE it works gr8, in netscape(4.7x) a scoll comes in the top frame (i do not want to use scrolling=&quot;0&quot;)...

can someone help me with this?

Why are you still using such an old version of netscape?

Presumably NS4.7 is rendering check.html as more than 114 pixels high (for whatever reason). FesterSXS's suggestion should suppress the scrollbar anyway.

What is the [tt]framespace[/tt] attribute supposed to do? Do you mean [tt]framespacing[/tt]? If so, it's only applied to the <frameset> tag, not <frame>.

You've also got the <noframes> element in the wrong place - it should be inside the <frameset> element, i.e. you should move [tt]</frameset>[/tt] to come just after [tt]</noframes>[/tt].

noframes is not really important. if i use scrolling=&quot;no&quot; then the page becomes 800 px long. but the lower frame will be only 780 px long. there will be alignment problems in diferent resolutions. thanks for ur help anyway. i found out a solution:
i have chucked NS :)

There's still companies that use NS4.x on their networks, including large multinationals.
Often they have a policy against using modern software going on the idea that anything new is by definition buggy and unsecure and that age will fix all that.

&quot;noframes is not really important&quot;

Maybe, but using valid HTML markup is really important. If it's worth putting in, it's worth putting in the right place.


&quot;There's still companies that use NS4.x on their networks, including large multinationals&quot;

Name two large multinational companies with this misguided policy.

christhunt:
the code i got is from a live running site. its url is:

from the intro page goto any inside page. it uses frames. they work gr8 in NS and they use the code i posted.

and when i meant noframes is not important i said that because my question was to overcome the frames problem...

..and that age will fix all that.
age did fix all that - in the form of newer, better, less security holed versions of the same browser.

Try NN 7, its pretty good - better CSS support than IE 6. In fact, look at this page:
Position:fixed nav menus pretty much destroy why you would ever want a html frame again. (scroll down on that page, if the top-right nav menu comes with you, you're using a good browser).

Posting code? Wrap it with code tags: [ignore]
Code: 
[/ignore][code]CodeHere
[ignore][/code][/ignore].
