Okay I am very new to this whole thing and I am trying to put a frame in! I was trying to follow Lissa's explanation....but when it says type in "your main page.html" what do i replace your main page with? And one more general question. DO you always start with the basic

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>page name</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

thing? I mean there are lots of "extras" you can add to your front page, but do i paste it over that, or do I start with the above code and then copy the new code onto it...so to create a left and top frame would i put in

<html>
<head>
<title>My Page</title>
</head>
<frameset rows="100,*">
<frame src="top.html" NAME="top">
<frameset cols="160,*">
<frame src="left.html" NAME="left">
<frame src="right.html" NAME="right">
</frameset>
</frameset>
<body>
</body>
<noframes>
<a href="your main page.html">Click Here</a>
</noframes>
</html>

or would I also add the beggininng prefix because it is my front page. like this

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>page name</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

<html>
<head>
<title>My Page</title>
</head>
<frameset rows="100,*">
<frame src="top.html" NAME="top">
<frameset cols="160,*">
<frame src="left.html" NAME="left">
<frame src="right.html" NAME="right">
</frameset>
</frameset>
<body>
</body>
<noframes>
<a href="your main page.html">Click Here</a>
</noframes>
</html>


I know I am really confusing but I hope someone can help me!

Thanks

For a frame code you just use this code:

<html>
<head>
<title>My Page</title>
</head>
<frameset rows="100,*">
<frame src="top.html" NAME="top">
<frameset cols="160,*">
<frame src="left.html" NAME="left">
<frame src="right.html" NAME="right">
</frameset>
</frameset>
<body>
</body>
<noframes>
<a href="your main page.html">Click Here</a>
</noframes>
</html>


Your best bet it to get it up exactly how lissa has it, then customise it later

When I am putting together new pages for my site, where in my HTML should I type in the code for the frames. Should it be after the initial:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Your page title goes here</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

prefix. So I'd type that begginning, then type my frame code, and then add my text, images, etc? Is that right or should I put the text even befor ethat prefix, or should it be at the end? Does it matter?

Thanks!

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Your page title goes here</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

that is always the beginning of your page.. there is stuff the goes inbetween the <head></head> tags but you always start out with <html> etc... yeah you have it right.. type the html tags then the frame tags and then your other stuff.. got it?
