Hi. I am working on a site with a basic frame set up of a top bar (goes all the way across top) a left side navigational frame and a main content frame to the right of the nav frame. I need for the page to scale to fit the browser window (by the way... the top header frame contains a gif that needs to scale as well.) Is there a way to make it scale with the browser window I will have a vertical scroll bar, but no horizontal scrolling

if i understand you correctly all you have to do is use percentages instead of fixed pixel width's
eg:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>for haasstudios </TITLE>
<META HTTP-EQUIV=&quot;Content-Type&quot; CONTENT=&quot;text/html; charset=iso-8859-1&quot;>
</HEAD>
<FRAMESET COLS=&quot;80%,*&quot; FRAMEBORDER=&quot;NO&quot; BORDER=&quot;0&quot; FRAMESPACING=&quot;0&quot;>
<FRAME NAME=&quot;leftFrame&quot; SCROLLING=&quot;NO&quot; noresize SRC=&quot;testFrame-2.htm&quot;>
<FRAME NAME=&quot;mainFrame&quot; SRC=&quot;test2.htm&quot;>
</FRAMESET>
<NOFRAMES>
<BODY BGCOLOR=&quot;#FFFFFF&quot; TEXT=&quot;#000000&quot;>
</BODY>
</NOFRAMES>
</HTML>

after checking out the above code you will notice the % therefore the frame size is equal to in this case 80% of the screen size

if this is information overload reply and i'm sure some one else if not myself can simplify it for you.

good luck
