<br />
<br />
Just wanted to say that although I am not sure exactly what type of a frame scheme you want to acheive, you can actually make a frame within a frame. See this example page on my site, in which I have some double and even triple framing...<br />
<br />
redlitmusprojekt.o-f.com/songs.html (<a class="postlink" href="http://redlitmusprojekt.o-f.com/songs.html">http://redlitmusprojekt.o-f.com/songs.html</a>)The code you originally posted is a DIV based layout.<br />
<br />
People used to do layouts by using tables. Tables are supposed to be used for, yeah, tabular data not for layouts.<br />
<br />
With DIVs, positioning and CSS, you can wrap each part of a page up in a DIV and then specify where on the page that block of content should be displayed.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately this only works in the latest browsers, but if you do it right it degrades quite well on older browsers. <br />
<br />
<br />
Frames is a backward step too far. I'd do it with a table, or leave it as DIV based.
