Hi,

I have made a very simple frameset which is 2 rows. 1pix and * pixels. In the one with * pixels, there is an ugly white gap on the front page the width of the scroll bar.

How can i get rid of it please?

Thank you

james

can you post the link or the code. more then likely you need to set the margins to 0 or there is a table causing this but with out the code or capability of looking at the page there is no telling what it could be A language that doesn't affect the way you think about programming is not worth knowing.

Hi,

Code is:

Code: 
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>E-Learning</TITLE>
</HEAD>

<FRAMESET rows=&quot;0,1*&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; scrollbars=&quot;yes&quot; frameborder=&quot;NO&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; framespacing=&quot;0&quot;>

<NOFRAMES>
<BODY>
<P>Your Browser does not support Frames, please get a new Browser</P>
</BODY>
</NOFRAMES>

<FRAME SRC=&quot;blank.htm&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; name=&quot;Top&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; scrollbars=&quot;no&quot; frameborder=&quot;NO&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; framespacing=&quot;0&quot;>>
<FRAME SRC=&quot;main.htm&quot; name=&quot;main&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; scrollbars=&quot;yes&quot; frameborder=&quot;NO&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; framespacing=&quot;0&quot;>

</FRAMESET>
</HTML>

Without the frameset, main.htm shows a greyed out scrollbar, but in the frameset I get no scroll bar and a ugly white gap

there's a extra > in there which may be causing a gap. doubtful but you should get it out of there to see A language that doesn't affect the way you think about programming is not worth knowing.

<FRAMESET rows=&quot;0*,1*&quot;

<FRAMESET rows=&quot;0,1*&quot; A language that doesn't affect the way you think about programming is not worth knowing.

that was meant to be
<FRAMESET rows=&quot;*,1*&quot; A language that doesn't affect the way you think about programming is not worth knowing.

Actually, I think it's supposed to be this:

<FRAMESET rows=&quot;1,*&quot; ...

Or if it's supposed to be 1 pixel and * pixels, then
Code: 
<FRAMESET rows=&quot;1,*&quot; ....
?

I don't see a white gap anywhere (IE6). BUT
Try using
Code: 
scrolling=yes
instead of
Code: 
scrollbars=yes

What browser are you using?

Netscape tends to leave that gap in there.

Hi,

IE 5.5 SP2

I've just put in scrolling=&quot;yes&quot; which removes the white border and puts back the scrollbars.

All sorted

Cheers for the thought
