Hello again, sorry to post all this HTML nonsence, i know a load of people on here have HTML as a second language so i figured mabye someone could help me out of a hole again.
I've spent ages sorting out a website for mums company- it looks ok for a first timer however i'm having a problem with the frames and some pictures
The pictures are most annoying part....basically when someone minimises or shirnks the window I want the scroll bars to be enabled as soon as the window begins to go past the images,
instead at the moment the page continues to shrink....moving images onto another line and then introduces the scroll bars once it hits the text...basically i wana know how to have images 'fixed' in place
Secondly with the frames, i know that unfortunaly its not possible to tell the page I only want a horizontal or vertical scroll bar
but when someone shrinks the browser window it effectivly crops the menu bar.....if i place scroll bars in, Front Page is adamant that there is somthing 10 pixels over to the right, so you get a horisontal scroll bar where it aint needed
the last problem I have is that I tried to create a minature border, some text in the middle writen on the page and then some buttons with roll over effects, i did the border in Photoshop and made sure that when i 'cut' it into sections each area was inline
when i alligned these up in Front Page they were quite far out
any help at all with this would be great, i've looked all over the web and am started to get fustrated with it ____________________ A scientist crossed a skunk with an owl. He's got a bird that smells but doesn't give a hoot |

Oh dear, have you looked at the code frontpage is making for you? It's at least 50% (s). Which probably has quite a lot to do with your spacing being a bit knackered and stuff moving about when you change the size of the window.

Have you specified the frameset with percentages? if so then I would advise you set the size of the left frame in pixels and leave the other frame to fill the remaining space. Something like -
Code: | <frameset frameborder="0" framespacing="0" rows="75,*"> |
Ultimately the answer is probably not to use front page. Try right clicking on one of your pages and choosing 'view source', half the code it's churning out is jiberish. It's a much better idea to lay a page out with tables than I'm not really sure what to suggest as a solution. ____________________ Gallery |

Thanks...i'll have a look at that
as for the shite.....I know its best to use <BR> where possible but its still a pain in arse to position stuff
I may well have to look at attempting the rest in notepad....i might see if dreamweaver can make a nicer job of it
i'm not quite sure if the spacing is whats mucking up the pictures, as it seems to leave the text as it
I may try a style sheet and indent it...but not sure if that would work for two images on the same line at opposite sides of the page ____________________ A scientist crossed a skunk with an owl. He's got a bird that smells but doesn't give a hoot |

I noticed that on another computer......again....another fasinating think that front page has done....it seems to make the 'main page' or frame overlap the left one whenever you shrink or resize it....that may have somthing to do with the scroll bars........
looks like i'll spend a while tomorrow sorting all this out.....cba to do it this evening
Thanks a lot for your help Dusy ____________________ A scientist crossed a skunk with an owl. He's got a bird that smells but doesn't give a hoot |

A thought:
With such a website, it's the content that's important.
You are trying to give people information about the company.
Therefore I'd start with getting a basic layout and the content in an easily accessible way.
Once you've done that you can start to tart it up with a few flashy bits, though it's probably best to not go over the top, so it's the content that's the major thing, not the website design . |
