I have a frameset in my HTML page which has 3 rows. The middle row has some nested frames in it. As it is now you can scroll the middle row - but I need to be able to have lots of content in the middle row and I don't want the bottom frame to always appear within the browser window. If there is a lot of content in the middle frame I would like to be able to scroll down to the bottom frame so the page appears more open. If I make the bottom frame relative to the other two it drops down out of sight but I can not scroll down to it - it is just lost down there. Does anyone know of a way to make the whole page scroll when it is devided up into frames?

Hope this is clear,
help is definitely much appreciated.

interesting problem - it sounds like you dont really need a 3 row frameset at all, but rather a 2 row frameset. If you make the content of the middle and bottom frames into a single table with height of 100%, then when there is less content in the middle, then the bottom frame will remain at the bottom, but when the middle content has too much in it, then the whole of the bottom of the screen will scroll.

Alternatively, you can make the 3 frames as iframes, then if you define the page as longer than the browser window, then the whole page will scroll but still retain the individual scroll bars for the iframes.

Do you know of a good resource where I can learn about iframes?

webmonkey is a useful resource for HTML - I learned a lot from this site when I first started doing html donkeys years ago
