ok, i want to make a two frame website. i have the left side done, but on the right side im going to make a table that has 3 parts: top, middle and bottom. on the middle part, is it possible to make a scrollable textbox that would have just a clear background? and how do you get rid of the borders and make the whole table practically transparent? thank you for your future help (i hope)

dunno about the textbox thing but to make the table not visible just put <table border="0">

ok, what i need is to be able to put a text box into a table and make only the textbox scrollable. i need the rest of the table to just pretty much be static.......

are you sure you're talking about a textbox and not an iframe?

ummmm, thats very close. but what i have is all my links in a left frame and then in the right frame i want a table with three rows: top, middle and bottom. i want the top to have the company logo. i want the bottom to have the contact info and i want the middle to have all the text and stuff that gets sent from the left frame. maybe i could make an iframe that could do something like that. if thats possible, please send the code asap

yes iframes would do that.

granted I've never used them myself but I'd imagine it'd go something like this:

<table border="0">
<tr><td>logo goes in here</td></tr>
<tr><td><iframe src="filename.html" name="filename" frameborder="no"></iframe></td></tr>
<tr><td>contact info here</td></tr>
</table>

then you'd make another html file and the name of it would go in where the src= is and you can edit all the table and iframe attributes as you see fit
