I have a page done in frames and on the main frame I have the content. When I have a lot of content it scrolls but when I dont the scrollbars disappear completely. What I have seen is that it is possible to keep the scroll bar base there even if you dont have to scroll. How is this done?

I'm rusty on this since I stopped using frames a long time ago.

Go to the source code of the frames page. Loof for the term scrollbars which presently I reckon shows 'auto'. Change this to yes or 1 for permanent scrollbars and no or 0 for no bars at all.

i hope I'm right but try it anyway and see.

Thanks for your help. It worked.

P.S. I dont like using frames but my client likes them.

Personal choice I suppose but I have found that where they may simplify navigation they create stacks of work to please the search engines.
