I have been trying and trying for 3 years to get frames right, but I just can't! I have some ?s...
-Do you needa put the code on ALL the pages?
-So, like, you make a blank index.html, make a new page with the actual frame part on it, and then another page with the frame content?
-On inline frames, do you just put that code in or do you need the regular code AND the inline frame code?
Thanx! I'll post again if I need any more help.

1. no, you only need to put the frame code on the index.html page or any page that you want to have as a 'main' page
2. No, on the index.html page for example you put the framecode. That's it, nothing else, ONLY the frame code. Then for example if you have 3 frames you make a left.html a right.html a top.html . On those pages you put html codes, but NOT the framecode, that is a code that only appears on the index.html or main.html page that 'brings together' the 3 other pages. Once you made the 3 pages and you open your index.html page you will see the 3 pages open inside the frames.
3. You don't need the regular code from frames to use inline frames. Inline frames can be used in almost anything. Also in tables. It is just a small frame, that doesn't filles up your whole screen like the regular frames does.
---------------------------------------------------------
frames are pretty easy once you know the following order to make them:
1. you make an index.html page. Put the framecode on it, nothing else! so no extra html, and don't put the content for the pages on that one.
2. you make the amount of pages like you have frames. So if you have 4 frames you make 4 pages etc. On all pages you add html like you normally make your site without frames.
3. once you saved it all you open your index.html page and you look if everything is working fine. Doesn't a page shows up? then check if it's linked right.
on the following page you can find framecodes to put on your index.html page.

OK, so I put the frame code on the index.html page, I make my "frame.html" page be the actual frame with no frame html or anything, and my main page or my right frame or whatever be just a normal page with no frame codes?
