Lock Frame Dimensions for One Frameset 1

Michael42 · Sep 25, 2006

Hello,

Using standard HTML 3.2 frames I want to ensure if a user resizes their browser that my top (header.html) frame page does not resize vertically and get chopped off.

Here is my index.html

Code:

<html>
<frameset rows="235,800" FRAMEBORDER="0" FRAMESPACING="0" BORDER="0">
  [COLOR=green]<!-- I want to lock this frame's row (height)[/color] --> 
  <frame src="header.html">

  <frameset cols="175,600" >
      <frame name="left"   src="left_home.html">
	  <frame name="detail" src="pages/about.html">
  </frameset> 
</frameset>
</html>

Though I have it set to 235 it still gets chopped off when the browser is resized. Maybe I am using frames wrong?

What can you recommend?

Thanks,

Michael42

Investigate the "noresize" attribute.

Hope this helps,

Sorry - I should have mentioend, it goes on the frame element:

Code:

<frame noresize="true" ... >

It's been a long while since I've used frames (for some odd reason! [bigears]

, so had to look it up ;-))
