Hi all

I have just created a quick frontt page with 3 frames. A top frame, left frame and main frame.

In the left frame I have a tracing image as a background and 2 links that open in the main frame.

When I preview this (in Safari and Firefox) the tracing image does not show, but the links do, and they work fine. Has anyone had a similar experience ?

I'd upload a picture explaining, but i cant see how too,


All help is greatly appreciated

cheers

Drew
 
Put the image on a web host and post the link, also provide the code please

sure thing

this is a pictutre of the design


and this is how its turning out


here is a bit of code too

Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">[/URL]
<html xmlns="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">[/URL]
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />
<title>Hazelwood Joinery</title>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body {
	background-image: url();
}
-->
</style></head>

<body tracingsrc="Ceiling truss .jpg" tracingopacity="48">
<h3>&nbsp;</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="who_we_are.html" target="mainFrame">What we do</a></p>
<p><a href="contactus.html" target="mainFrame">Contact Us  </a></p>
</body>
</html>

I can't see in the code where the tracing image is set, so Im assuming thats where the issue lies.
 
A tracing image is not supposed to show up in a browser. It is a Dreamweaver construct to assist in layout.

See Tracing images for an example.
