Hi, I am developing a web application which will be comprised of three columns: (1) Search form, (2) Image gallery, (3) Image details. The site is going to be more like html framesets, but research reveals that framesets are not favourable due to many reasons. I however found an alternative that I want to use instead of html framesets http://www.ironspider.ca/frames/smartframes.htm I thought it would be easy for me to add rows which should serve as a page header, but I was wrong. I tried adding to this part of the code, but row apeared in a wrong place at the bottom: // Writes frameset document.write('<frameset rows="17%,*" frameborder="no">'); document.write('<frameset cols="25%,75%" frameborder="no">'); document.write('<frame src="' + menuURL + '" name="menu">'); document.write('<frame src="' + contentURL + '" name="content" marginheight="15" marginwidth="50" scrolling="yes">'); // --> The original script for the index.html page is as follows: <!-- /* SmartFrames - Author: Robert Darrell - http://www.ironspider.ca/ */ // Defines variables // REPLACE menu.htm WITH YOUR MENU PAGE // REPLACE page1.htm WITH YOUR INITIAL CONTENT PAGE menuURL = "menu.htm"; contentURL = "page1.htm"; reloadURL = parent.document.URL; orphanURL = reloadURL.substring(reloadURL.indexOf('?')+1, reloadURL.indexOf('&')); frameName = reloadURL.substring(reloadURL.indexOf('&')+1, reloadURL.length); // Reassigns variable according to frame name passed by orphan if (frameName == "menu") { menuURL = orphanURL; } else if (frameName == "content") { contentURL = orphanURL; } // Writes frameset document.write('<frameset cols="25%,75%" frameborder="no">'); document.write('<frame src="' + menuURL + '" name="menu">'); document.write('<frame src="' + contentURL + '" name="content" marginheight="15" marginwidth="50" scrolling="yes">'); // --> </script> <!-- Use the noframes section to help search engines index your site --> <noframes>THIS WEBSITE IS ABOUT...<br><br> <a href="menu.htm">Site Menu</a> </noframes> </frameset> I hope someone will help.
