Hi All,<br />
<br />
I have a question for some of your folks that write in Notepad. BTW, I find Notepad to be my favorite editor to compose and write in...but that's a topic for another day!<br />
<br />
My question is: I like using frameset to lay out my websites and one problem is when you code frameborder="0" you still get a 4 or 5 px clear border around the frames.<br />
<br />
In the following example of my index page, I used framespacing="0" and it deletes the frameborder completly. I tried using the checking device from the W3C folks and they just about went nuts. I have enclosed the code I came up with and have used for a little over a year for one of my web site customers and it works like a charm. My question is: why does it work? Since it works, shouldn't the W3C folks take a look at adding it to their code?<br />
<br />
