Please help

I have quite a lot of information to put on my webpage, rather than extend the page I would like to add in a frame or box with scroll bars down the side, how do I do this.

Alan

k well first of all frames arent usually the way to go as well as scroll bars, the best idea would be to go with tables.

the best option is to create multiple pages. You can use these with or without frames.

for scrollable areas you can also use text boxes or scrollable DIV tags. most experienced designers would shy away from these except for very specialist uses.

to do any of this you will need to understand the underlying html. The site linked above will give you all the necessary codes.

Sounds like you might want to use a (Iframe) Example:

>iframe id="tabiframe" src="http://www.MSN.com" width="100%" height="350px"<>/iframe<

Copy & Paste this into the of the webpage you want it to be on.

Change all the ">" & "<" to face the opposite way.(For the code to work)

Change the "src" to whatever you want in the frame.

change the "width" & "height" to the size of the frame you want.

Also check out "http://www.DynamicDrive.com" and search for "Iframe" on that websites homepage.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your reply. So ok I know what you are saying but instead of the SRC I want to put text on the page (Text Only). I have tried eveything but just cant seem to get the text in, what do I put in place of the *'s, what am I doing wrong?

>iframe id="tabiframe" *************** width="100%" height="350px"<>/iframe<

Thanks for your help

I have the same issue as Alan. I want to add frames to have a simple menu bar, with all links opening in the main frame.
The menu bar would be 136 pixels wide, and the rest of the window would be allocated to the main page.

I don't completely know what I'm doing here, is this the right code for my index.html (frameset) page? (Replace [ with <)



[FRAMESET COLS="136,*%"]
[FRAME SRC="menu.html"]
[FRAME SRC="main.html"]
[/FRAMESET]

[/FRAMESET]
