Table and Frames Tables and Frames AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
Ok I am making my website and I don't get how to put a frame inside a table in fact i don't get frames at all!!! If you have a column/row and you want the table to take up the entire area of one of the columns/rows how would you do that?? How do tables work i don't get them could someone explain them to me in detail please.
perhaps a brief explaination before going further?
tables = a big square that contains rows and columns. does not split the screen into different sections, just the page contents. kinda like a spreadsheet if you are familiar with that. these are usually used to display data (information) or for layout purposes. tables are "on" the webpage.
frames = similar concept to a table. rows and columns are used, but it splits the current viewing window into sections and each section shows a different (full) webpage.
iframes = similar concept to frames. no rows or columns for this feature. it creates a small window on the webpage. inside this window is displayed a different (full) webpage. iframes are "on" the webpage (like an image would be displayed "on" a webpage.)
now... if that possibly cleared up anything... what is the question? and perhaps do a forum search for your specific idea?

I have a similar question- if I can join in on this thread. I'd like to put an iframe on a table, only I already have a div image on that table that I want to be able to see in the iframe. So I guess what I'd like is a transparent iframe over the table image, but every time I've tried to do this the iframe goes under the image on the table and then you can't see the frame... What can I do to fix this? Any help please? :)
Here's my WIP site (http://freckled.ds4a.com/homed.html).
