I have to get a page uploaded for Marketing class. I've worked with one page indexes in the past. Here I want a three frame set up. Left, top and bottom. When I save it saves all three which is fine but when I upload to the web server it only see's the index and not the other frames. I have all uploaded but when I go to the actual site only the index is showing. How do I cut up an HTML index page in three parts? Left will be a navigation window the right/top is content and right/bottom will be contact information.

Is there a better way to do this? Any templates that I can work with that after I doctor it up I can upload to the sever as a single index.html

Hi,
IMHO a better way to tackle this would be with CSS - if you search for something like CSS page templates you will find lots of free examples, the only disadvantage is that you will have something else to learn <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

BUT - your pages should be much easier for the search engines to index because they will be contained within one html file rather than a frameset plus the three files that are needed to populate it. Once you get used to CSS there's no going back.

here are a couple of references to start you off . . .
