<html> Below is the step by step description of what each line means. We don't need <body> tag for frame page. If you put the <body> tag before <frameset>, some browsers will not show the frames. Look at my first mark [], <FRAMESET COLS="100%" ROWS="60,*" border=no frameborder=0 framespacing=0>. We create frames with the opening tag <FRAMESET>. Within this tag, we specify column and row attributres. As you may notice, this page is devided into two rows. We first specify column width = 100% (COLS="100%") and the height of the first row = 60 pixels (ROWS="60,*"). The asterisk mark [*] is the value of whatever space that left below. That means the second row will use the rest of the space. You also can specify the value in % such as ROWS="60%,40%", but specifying the value in pixels will give you a greater control over page composition. Next, you will see that we have borderless frames here. This is possible by specifying border=no frameborder=0 framespacing=0. Generally, if you don't want borderless frames, you don't need to use border=, frameborder= and framespacing= attributes. You can just put this <FRAMESET COLS="100%" ROWS="60,*">, and the browsers will create frames with border for you. Look at my second mark [ We have specified the 60 pixels on the top. Now, were going to work on the space below top frame (*). Because we will split this section into 2 parts, we so put the <FRAMESET> tag again here. Look at the third mark [], <FRAMESET COLS="160,*" border=no frameborder=0 framespacing=0>, you 'll see that the same rule was applied. I specified the width of the left frame to 160 pixels and left the space on the right unspecified (*). There are two columns in this row. You need to specify the files for both sections. We are using <FRAME> again here. <FRAME NAME="left"
SRC="framelf.html" SCROLLING="AUTO" NORESIZE> This is not a new case. The left frame and the right frame are specified using the same rule as we previously assign a file for upper frame. Don't forget to close FRAMESET tag with </FRAMESET>. If you don't specify scrolling and resize value, the defaults (scrollable and resizable) will take place. OK, now the tag <noframes> is an alternative for people who use browsers that don't support frame. Browsers that support frames will not read anything inside this tag. This tag can be inside or outside <frameset> and </frameset>. If you want to set BODY attribute such as a background color, you should put <body> tag inside <noframe> tag.
Here is HTML code from my left frame. <a HREF="begin.html" TARGET="_top">The easiest HTML guide for beginners</a> Look at target="_top", this is the way you send the page to another frame. For emxample, if you want a click on the left brings a new page into the right frame, you have to specify target="main". (Absolutely, you first have to give the name to frame on the right as described ealier.) You also can use the predefined targets as I've used ("_top"). The predefined targets are case sensitive and begin with underscore [_]. They are:
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
], <FRAME NAME="upper" SRC="frameup_frame.htm"
SCROLLING="NO" NORESIZE>. <FRAME> is used to specify the file inside <frameset>.
I have to create a file and put it in SRC="".
On this page, the upper frame is named upper. SCROLLING="NO" means visitors
don't have an ability to scroll up and down the page. You
can put "yes" or "no". If you don't specify "auto" is the
default value. Auto scrolling means the browsers will determine
whether this section fit into the screen or need scrolling.
NORESIZE means viewers of this page cannot put their mouse
between the frame and resize it. If you don't specify this,
they will be able to resize your frame.| © 2003-2005 Site Tutor Inc. All rights reserved. Terms of Use and Disclaimer |
