Hey there,

I know a small amount about frames, and designed a flash site that I inteded to center on a webpage.

But, below the flash file, I want a horizontally-scrolling space for more content. I figured that I could just break the frames into 3 columns, then break the middle column up into 2 rows.

The problem is that I can't figure out how to tell the html that I want the left and right frames to be of equal size, so that my middle frame (containing both the top frame (swf) and bottom frame (horizontally scrolling txt) ) is still centered. Is it possible?

thx for the help,

andy

let me know if this doesn't accomplish what you want:

<FRAMESET COLS="25%,50%,25%">
<FRAME SRC="">
<FRAMESET ROWS="75%,25%">
<FRAME SRC="">
<FRAME SRC="">
</FRAMESET>
<FRAME SRC="">
</FRAMESET>

I personally dislike flash.

This might be possible to be fixed and just use tables if you have access to php and or ASP

Thanks for the code! It's setting up the tables just like I want them.

But, the only problem is that i still need to define the exact pixel size of the middle table. What if it needs to be, say, 700 px wide? Can you help me here? I hope it does't kink everything up.

Thanks!

Nevermind, I fixed the code by changing it to:

<FRAMESET COLS="25%,740,25%" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
<FRAME SRC="left_side.html">
<FRAMESET ROWS="75%,25%" border="0" framespacing="0" frameborder="NO">
<FRAME SRC="main_frame.html">
<FRAME SRC="bot_frame.html">
</FRAMESET>
<FRAME SRC="right_side.html">
</FRAMESET>

thx for the help all

by the way, flash rox. :)
