Frames & Resolution

Hi All,

I know how much you all hate frames, and for that reason I must first justify my reason for using frames and if anyone can produce a suggestion that doesn't use frames but still allows the functionality within the site, I will give you a medal.

The reason I use frames is due to my javascript navigation menu, which requires a target so that it doesn't keep reloading the navigation menu, hence loosing where the user has clicked. Need I say more? (probably)

My problem is that I use three (top, navigation on the left and a main frame on the right) and the left has a fixed width of x pixels, but when I view this in different resolutions the left hand frame gets bigger as the resolution increases!! So the same page looks completly different under different resolutions, can anyone HELP, PLEASE!!

Cheers Everyone,

Harvey

Never really thought about anything like this because, I dont use frames

And what you are doing, IS possible without frames, but it's maybe a bit to advanced. You can always use a page include. Or just put it in tables and put the javascript in a external file which you menu calls, this way it doesnt have to reload the javascript every time.

For the change of size of your frame, I guess it's because you use a percentage to set the frame sizes. Try and turn that into a set number of pixels. No matter what screensize, it will place it at those pixels instead of a percentage of the screen.
I think that is it, but other then that, as I don't use frames... I don't know.

Let me know if it worked, alright?

Good luck!
