Are you sure you made the pages that go with the frame....for example.... left.html right.html

Can you please give us the url to the site you are having problems with? (Because we can't really help unless we see the code or site.)

The web site I tried the fram thing on is
http://petz4me2002.netfirms.com/index.html

I also noticed on another question about the same thing and I may have found my problem, but my next question is on the html for the index thingy, it has this listed:
<a href="your main page.html">Click Here</a>

What do I put where it says "your main page.html" and what do I put where it says Click here?

You have too much stuff on your index page. It should ONLY be the frame code:

<html>
<head>
<title>My Page</title>
</head>
<frameset cols=20%,80%>
<frame src="left.html" name="leftside">
<frame src="right.html" name="rightside">
</frameset>
<body>
</body>
<noframes>
<a href="your main page.html">Click Here</a>
</noframes>
</html>

---------

You make a left.html and put your links on there. Then you make a right.html and put your introductory stuff there.

---------

For your other question.......You put the link to where your 'links' for your site are. So if people can't view frames they can at least visit your site. Or you can put 'Sorry your browser doesn't support frames' instead of putting a link.

OOps, one more question, so If my introductory page is my home.html, I would change it from home.html to right.html so it would show up? Correct?

Thank you for your help

You can do it that way. Or change the right.html in the frame code to home.html.
