Hi yall,
I am putting to gether a pretty simple site for a company and I have a problem with some frames.
I am using a three frame structure - top frame is navigation, middle frame is content and bottom frame is secondary content. At the moment the bottom frame is anchored to the bottom of the page so if there is any resizing it moves away from the other two frames and starts to cover the middle frame if it gets too small.
What am I doing wrong?

i think the biggest problem is that your using frames - search google for problems with frames to find out why.
Have a look at some of these: http://www.cssplay.co.uk/layouts…
specifically the Fixed layout versions.

(May 29 06, 07:40)Exactly - by now you really should be getting to grips with css/divs. Frames always were clunky, and have been especially so for about 4 years now - the only 'acceptable' framing is that using the iframe tag (like here on NT).
It may sound daunting (and maybe you don't have the server-side capability anyway) but i recommend you try and utilise the basics of php - you'll find that most of the functionality of frames blends much more seemlessly with 'includes' (of any kind, for that matter - ASP's good too) and gives you a lot more control.
have a gander at the following,
