<b>I am looking for scalability for an existing "frameset" custom interface for small and large resolution displays.</b>

Hello,

My client is wanting to have an existing interface that is built with a custom frameset to scale depending on the resolution of the browser. Each Frame has a flash element that he wishes to scale proportionately with the interface.

Currently the interface is constrained to 800/600 in a center frame and the outside area of the interface scales a blank area.

Being a designer and not a true programmer, before I venture deep into the tables and frames of this interface, I thought I could get some feedback on the best way to handle this project. Or if it is even possible using frames.

My current issue that I am having is the proportions of the flash and the frames. If I set the tables to a percent rather than a set pixel size it doesn't effect the frame size. If I set the frames to increase in size it doesn't constrain the proportions of the tables and the flash inside. Again I am not a real programmer, so please forgive my ignorance.

Below is a sample of the existing interface as it is now.

And here is a snap shot of the interface in Dreamweaver.

I have signed up on 3 forums that claim to be Dreamweaver communities today. None of which have given me any reply. You guys seem to be on top of it and I am hoping I have found a new home. I really appreciate any feedback or direction you can give.

Thanks very much,

Daniel
