a firend of mine asked me to make some changes to her layout, she is using frames *groan*

Anyway, she wants to give a set width to each frame and then center it in the middle of the page (like a table-based layout)... is this possible with frames?

I have set the second frameset (which contains the "body" and the "navibar") to cols="570,180", but instead of doing that, it sets the "body" part and streches the "navibar" part.

This is the page, from what I have:

<frameset rows="225,*" border=0 frameborder=0 framespacing=0 >

<frame src="top.html" NAME="top" scrolling=no noresize >

<frameset cols="570,180" border=0 frameborder=0 framespacing=0 >

<frame src="mainhome.html" NAME="left" border=0>

<frame src="right.html" NAME="right" scrolling=no noresize >

</frameset>

</frameset>

Try the following. If thats not wht you want, I would suggest using a table with Iframes.
