Framemargin

wj · Oct 29, 2004

Hi all,

I've got a problem with frames. When I use the following page:

---
<HTML>
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<FRAMESET cols='*,760'>
<FRAME NAME='border_left' src='border.php' MARGINWIDTH=0 SCROLLING=auto>
<FRAME NAME='page' src='home.php'>
</FRAMESET>
</HTML>
---

a margin appears at the right side of the frames. When I change
scrolling to 'no', this margin disappears, but I cant use scrollsbars
when I load a big page in the frame.
Is it possible to have no margin with a small page and a margin for the
scrollbar with a large page in Internet Explorer (Mozilla works fine)??

Thanx,
WJ

It's the browser interface. Leave it alone.

Frames _are_ a problem. http://dorward.me.uk/www/frame/

Internet Explorer leaves a placeholder space for scrollbars. I suggest you
live with it.
