Didn't Understand Frame Code
Want to use the following code for my site...
However, tried substituting the line "your main page.html" with different pages...but, not sure what page that is referring to ??? I just end up with a white blank page in the end each time. (So for now, I've reverted to the basic site until I can get some help by somebody here.) Here's my site : link Here is the code I was trying to use: <html> <head> <title>Cherry Stone Arts</title> </head> <frameset cols=256,* border=0 frameborder=0 framespacing=0> <frame src="left.html" name="leftside"> <frame src="right.html" name="rightside"> </frameset> <body> </body> <noframes> <a href="your main page.html">Click Here</a> </noframes> </html> Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Bijou |

<noframes>
<a href="your main page.html">Click Here</a> </noframes> That part is for people who have older browser's that dont support frames. I usually dont use that part of the code, but if you do want to use it, put the url of your main page there. <a href="main.html">Click here</a>

Ok....so, then it's not necessary?
And, then, again...the "main.html" reference is still the part that I don't understand. As I understand it, everything - with the exception of index.html is all parcelled out - ex. right.html, left.html, etc. ...??? So, which page would be the main.html?? (In the meantime, I'll be trying out the frame code without the latter part referencing the 'no frame' part.) Thank you Valkyrie for responding. Bijou |

in your case it would either be left.html or right.html, it depends which one contains your links...its basically so those who dont have a browser that supports frames can still navigate your site by you giving them the link to the 'main' page of your site. But yeah, it can be lived without...theres only a tiny tiny tiny percent of people with browsers that dont support frames these days.

That really explains things further for me.
I will be working on it soon. Thank you Starlet and Valkyrie. Bijou |

After many days of trying....this is what I found out !!
The software I have been using does NOT support frames - (I called the help number) *That's why everything was not working * But, I went online and found some shareware - and free trial of website template/create your own site - maker and can make the frames work now !! ------ **New Situation ** --Need help in customizing the colour of the scrollbars on the frames so they blend in with the background colour?? (I know the colour commands, and how to colour the scrollbars on the individual pages - but, I'm doing something wrong somewhere.) Please advise. Thank you, Bijou P.S. Haven't published the pages to the web. |

for coloring your scrollbars you have to add the color codes in a stylesheet between the <head> and </head> on the pages that load INSIDE the frame.
so basically the only thing you have on your framepage is the framecode itself. Everything else like colours etc will be added to the pages that open INSIDE. Love, Mirna |

Thank you MaGICSun,
The Scrollbar colours are working now. Now I have to put together everything that I've learned up to now. I have to fix the links to frames, etc. - tidy everything up. --- Also, now wondering if changing everything over to CSS then linking to a CSS page would be a better idea ?? Any thoughts ?? (Learning so much as I go) Thanks, Bijou P.S. Would the page fotos load faster by going to CSS ? (Hate the lag time thus far- looks so unprofessional) |

that would defenitally be easier for you to change something like scrollbar colours when you want to change your layout sometime. Also font size etc can be easily changed then if people might email you that your font is too tiny in that resolution or too big in this resolution bla bla bla. it would be a pain to change every number on the page
![]() good luck ! Love, Mirna |
