Hi!

I have a page that contains a text area. What I want it to do is to change its size according to the size of the browser window.

How can I make it do that?

I did it once but just can't seem to remember how I did it.

Thanks

All:

Working to update a previously designed website.

Original design uses an <img> tag to create a top banner and another <img> tag
to create a side banner.

In each case there are mapped coordinates on each banner as links for the subsequent pages.

Basic page design is as follows:

Code:

<table>
   <tr>
      <td>
         <img usemap="Map1">
         <map name="Map1">
            <area>
            <area>
            <area>
         </map>
      </td>
   </tr>
</table>
<table>
   <tr>
      <td>
         <img name="Map2">
         <map>
            <area>
            <area>
            <area>
         </map>
      </td>
      <div>
         ***PAGE CONTENT***
      </div>
   <tr>
<table>

The challenge is that the [PAGE CONTENT] varries in length througout the site causing some pages
to be much longer or shorter than others.

This causes some inconsistencey in the relationship between the side banners height and the
page content.

In other words in some cases the banner is exceptionally longer than the page content and the
reader must scroll past significant "dead-space" before being brought to the lowest
mapped links in the side banner; or...

...in some cases the side banner is significantly shorter than the page content causing the
banner image to appear "poorly-fit" to the page design.

I considered altering the 2nd table instance in the above design so that the banner is carried
in a <td> tag that is adjacent to the page content and hopefully to allow the tag carrying the
image to size relative to the <td> tag carring the content....

Code:

<table>
   <tr>
      <td>
         <img usemap="Map1">
         <map name="Map1">
            <area>
            <area>
            <area>
         </map>
      </td>
   </tr>
</table>
<table>
   <tr>
      <td size="100%">
         <img name="Map2">
         <map>
            <area>
            <area>
            <area>
         </map>
      </td>
      <td size="100%" >
         <table>
            ***PAGE CONTENT***
         </table>
      </td>
   <tr>
<table>

The problem I've found with this is that as the content size causes the image to "flex", either
readablilty or image quality or both are effected, AND the mappings become inconsistent as the
image coordinates constantly change.

I've considered 2 solutions and am leaning toward one, but thought I'd post this and see if there
are better ideas I'm overlooking.

One idea was to add additional table rows inside the [PAGE CONTENT] table presumably creating a
"defalut" page size that would never be smaller than a standard for the side banner.
Problem: larger page sizes are still a problem as are the changing map coordinates

My other idea was to return to the original page design listed first above and again settle on
a standard side banner "height"... ...any page that was significantly longer than that height
would be split to 2 or more pages with a [NEXT>>] button at the bottom of the page navigating to
the additional content.
Problem: ...possible complications splitting content...
Benefit: ...consistent page design that allows a consistent side banner with navigable links...


Question for the group:
Does this sound reasonable?
Are there better alternatives I am overlooking?

THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ALL INPUT!!

i am using iframe concept in my website ,But it is not working

Here is the code:

<iframe name="downlineframe" height="400" width="100%" frameborder="0" src="http://nyoil1.ning.com" ></iframe>

if i give http://nyoil1.com,it is working well,if i give http://nyoil1.ning.com na its not working....

hey guys, im looking for a way of cutting down the amount the visitor to my site has to download, as well and speed of loading betweens pages, ive attached an image of how to site looks so far, i have rows of links on eith side, on the top, and a row going down the center i wish to display in. If the user clicks on a link from anyside i would like only the center text to change and leave the links and header, saveing on size of the web pages on the server and the amount the user has to download

i looked around and found frames would be an answer but there god dam confusing and it seems they come attached with a scroll bar where as i would like the page to simply feed downwards

is there any way of keeping the outer part like a template and like i said just have the links replace the text with what ever the topic?

hmm I asked for help in getting a big frame over the site content and I got here help .(by the way thanks)(I dont mean frames... What I meant was to put the content in some kind of a big frame likse div...)

Code:

<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
html, body {
 background: blue;
}
* {
 margin: 0;
 padding: 0;
 border: 1;
}
#container {
 width: 885px;
 margin: 0px auto;   /*centers #container*/ padding: 5px; 
 background: black;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="container">
</div>
</body>
</html>

it helped but then I found another problem :
I used this code for puting a frame the i can scroll over something but now it doesn't work

Code:

<b style="overflow:auto; height: 640px; width=292px;" class="sotableup" align="left">
</b style>

And now it doesn't work.
Any ideas?

Ok call me slow but I am starting to move to a non-frame web site structure now and I am going to be getting away from tables except to display tabular data. Most of my sites have a header image and a menu that I want to stay constant from page-to-page. Also, I assume I want to lay-out my pages using styles and divs. Can someone point me to a resource that discusses these things.

Thanks a ton in advance~

Hey Guys - I need to make a real basic page with a frameset-like element.

I need the top part of the page to remain stationary, and the bottom scroll underneath it - so that the top part of the page stays on stop of whatever the user is looking at.

Should I do this with frames, or is there another method that I am unaware of?

Thanks!

I wanted to put some kind of a big frame ( not with frames ) around the web content so that the sides would be clear without any content on it.
I tried alot of stuff but nothing helps

like:

BG(nothing) l bla bla l BG(nothing)
BG(nothing) l bla bla l BG(nothing)
BG(nothing) l bla bla l BG(nothing)

Greetings to all.

I have been trying to sort this problem for a very long time.

I have 2 frames on my web page, one is the contents.

Can I link to a specific part of another frame? I don't think HTML allows this - or does it?

Help please.

how to make a navigation frame?...

I use HTML 4.01 transitional, with some style sheets. I'd like to put a frame around a picture on an inspirational website for purely ascetic reasons. I don't want to use a table for a frame like some folks do. It' s kind of tacky. Does anybody know what code I'd need to do this? Is there some kind of style sheet I could use?

Hi.
i'm trying to make a simple page for some art work with two frames, well one, really. one is the main frame where the image pops up in when you click on one of the thumbnails in the image map. i want the main frame to be on the left, and the imagemap on the right. i have an example of a page i'm working on, and i can't figure out how to get them where i want them.

here it is:

Hi, I am using frames, THe HTML file I am using does not seem to navigate away from this page when I click on one of the links contained in the frame eventhough it points to a different HTML file. What, in the frame def makes a particular frame element a master, i.e. always present. There are then sub frames which I would like to appear and dissapear depending on which link is clicked. Any help on this would be great, thanks.
