Frames wont work above 800x600

brophy87 · 04-11-2004, 11:38 AM

Hi i am making a website for a cleint and i cant figure out why my middle right frame wont align to the right. When you make the website resolution more than 800 it gets all screwed up. I used 10 frames to make sure the site would look ok in any size. In a bit of a rut and need some help. Posted source code and website underneith.

You're going completeley the wrong way about things by constructing a page layout useing frames. That means you need many pages to construct one.

You should use tables instead. Much simpler and the proper way of doing things. Tables will also allow you you to compensate for resolution if done correctly.

I advise finding a few tutorials on web construction to explain to you about tables and show you how to use tables.

EDIT:- Here is a site that has a list of different tutorial sites that you can use.

Sorry if I come accross a little harsh but it's best to start off with the correct way of doing things. Will stand you in good stead for the future especially if you're designing for other people.

<frameset cols="700,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0" rows="*">

I think the problem may be that your frame is only 700 pixels wide. Maybe change that to 100%
