Frames are great at times, terrible at others...this is one of the others.<br />
<br />
I'm using frames to standardize navigation for a CD I'm working on....<br />
<br />

<br />
My problem is this, the background color defined in the CSS for the <body> tag is #000066, but when each of the framesets loads for the first time, the pages default to a white background. Is there a definition that can be added to the <frameset></frameset> tags to make this the blue color I so desperately want it to be, instead of the white?!?<br />
<br />
Any help or recomendations is greatly appreciated.<!--content-->I see a color hex code in the body tag. that is the onyl way to set color to a frameset. you are right in the way you are doing it. the fact you get white is irrelevant, can't see where it is coming from.<br />
<br />
also in you rpages you have <br />
../../css/body.css<br />
<br />
which is not there.<!--content-->scoutt, <br />
<br />
thanks for the response. Looks like the WWW3 hasn't thought of everything. Would seem logical that you could add a statement to set the page color before the frameset loads the html files for the frames.<br />
<br />
Oh well, just another limitation to find a work around for.<br />
<br />
As far as the ../../ccs/body.css, this is actually a set of files in a subdirectory on the web, it's not actually the website for the company. The actual site is <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.etcconnect.com">http://www.etcconnect.com</a><!-- m --> . This is just a cd we put out once a year, I posted it on the web so our offices can review it without my having to send CD's to all of them each time we make changes.<br />
