Hello

Ok, i designed a very simple site using frames. In my test2.html i am using a frameset in place of a body. I just decided i wanted to create margins on both sides of what would be the body, only the margin commands you would usually use with the body does not work in a frameset. Help, how do i squeeze in the the site on either side, creating about a one inch margin. Here is the code.

<code>
<html xmlns="<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="test.css" type="text/css" >
<title >DW Equipment</title>
</head>
<frameset rows="25%,*">
<frame src="header.html" target="showframe" />
<frameset cols="15%,85%">
<frame src="nav.html" />
<frame src="home.html" />
</frameset>
</frameset>

</html>
</code>
 
Use a left margin in nav.html and a right margin in home.html.

Your test.css does not apply to the frames.
You need to include specific css in each of the those pages (header, nav, home).

I ended up using the margin in header, and it worked. thanks, you spurred the thought.
