Scrollbars don't appear in my frame

I have a login page appears within a frameset. After logging in you are taken to a menu and from there can go to quite a large table which is bigger than the frame.

However, even though I have explicitly set scrolling=yes, scroll bars do not appear and the table runs off the edge of the screen. If I hit refresh the scrollbars appear and all is OK.

I don't have alot of experience with frames so I'm hoping there is a simple answer!

Here is my code for my controlling page. The frame in question is "test".

<html>
<frameset rows=&quot;111,1*&quot; cols=&quot;*&quot; frameborder=&quot;NO&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; framespacing=&quot;0&quot;>
<frame src=&quot;/website/banner.html&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; frameborder=&quot;NO&quot; scrolling=&quot;NO&quot; name=&quot;banner&quot;>
<frameset cols=&quot;200,1*&quot; rows=&quot;*&quot; frameborder=&quot;NO&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; framespacing=&quot;0&quot;>
<frame src=&quot;/website/nav.html&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; frameborder=&quot;NO&quot; scrolling=&quot;NO&quot; name=&quot;nav&quot;>
<frame src=&quot;/support_test/login.asp&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; frameborder=&quot;NO&quot; scrolling=&quot;yes&quot; name=&quot;test&quot;>
</frameset>
</frameset>
</html>

Hi iowtech,

What you want is scrollbars in the test frame right. To get them the document loaded into the frame must be larger than
the frame itself. I dont think there is an option like
scrolling=&quot;yes&quot; in frames.

I hope this helps, BobbaFet

I'm fairly sure that scrolling=&quot;yes&quot; is legitimate, but I don't get scrollbars even when the page is bigger that the frame.

try scrolling=yes in the dcoument itself.
