2 Frames, 1 Scrollbar for both, Possible?

W

ws

I have always tried to stay away from frames but the client wants frames
for this because there is a flash music player that we need to keep on
the screen and not have it reload with each page load.

That being said, I know that the frames have individual scrollbars by
definition. However, I need to have just one scrollbar to control the
entire page (in other words, make it look to the user like we aren't
using frames at all.) Is there a work-a-round for this?

Thanks in advance.

Flash music player?

Sounds like a perfect time to bring in pop-ups.

Visitor clicks on a link to launch the Flash music player in a (small)
pop-up window.

They can then use the main browser window to surf the site with no frames.

You can set individual scrollbars in the frameset.

Oops, I misread the question. But the question itself is contradictory.
Either you want the whole page to scroll or you dont. If you want a
"fixed" section with a full-page scrollbar, frames probably aren't the
answer. Css is.
