I am having a problem with my code. See I put the html code for the frames on the index page, yet when I got to my home page to see what has become of it after I saved it, all I see is the index page. www.geocities.com/emilysworld01

Pls help!

The big picture of what I my problem is, is that on what page do I put my html code?

Thanks to all who respond!

what is it that your trying to do? you have an 'html' tag inside of a 'table' inside of a 'body'.

you'll need one or the other but not both.

I am trying to add a left and top frame, could you tell me how to do that and where to put the code?

Okay. Here's the coding for a basic frameset with top nested left frames.

<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>

<frameset rows="80,*" cols="*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="topframe.html" name="topFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize >
<frameset cols="80,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="leftframe.html" name="leftFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize>
<frame src="mainframe.html" name="mainFrame">
</frameset>
</frameset>
<noframes><body>

</body></noframes>
</html>

What you need to do is create pages to go in each of those frames and put the file names of those pages into the src bit.

I put the html code on my index, and have made my other pages, but when I access my page it only comes up with the index page.

Cadi, did what you said, and put the code on the index page. It's not working though. When I try to go to my website it brings the index page up instead of home. Should I put the home stuff on the page that is not a frame (index for me)? Will it work then?

You have all kinds of extra stuff in there. Keep away from PageBuilder. It will do you no good.

<html>
<head>
<title>Shooting Stars</title>
</head>

<frameset rows="80,*" cols="*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="top.html" name="topFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize >
<frameset cols="80,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="left.html" name="leftFrame" scrolling="YES" noresize>
<frame src="home.html" name="mainFrame">
</frameset>
</frameset>
<noframes><body>

</body></noframes>
</html>

Go to filemanager and choose to edit the page. Delete everything. Paste that in.

cadi's code should work unless your doing something that were not understanding :)

Could it be because I have very low disk space?

Also be sure that you have pages called top.html, etc. Otherwise you get nothing.

I do.

No, probably not. If all the stuff is saved in your thingie on Geocities, your diskspace is totally irrelevent.

Not a problem. ;)

Hang on, I just thought of something that I think you said but I'm not sure if I understood . . . that stuff that's in the code I put up there: you saved that as your index page, yes? 'Cause yeah, frameset=index most of the time unless you're up to something different.
