Alignment problem

's Computer Specifications

Hi Folks... if anyone could help me out with this it would be much
appreciated.

http://www.rollestonsections.com/jetpro/index.htm

The banner and menu is in one frame, and the main page below is in
another frame, both are set to 800 pixels width and centre aligned.
However the scroll bar in the man page casues a misalignment. Is there
an easy fix for this? (I'm still working on this hence a lot of missing
information from the web page.)

Thanks

Don't use frames
- Unnnecceary w/ good Dhtml

If you must use frames set all your page margins the same
- you have
<body bgcolor="#000000" link="#FFFFFF" vlink="#FFFFFF" alink="#FFFFFF" topmargin="10">
(no left margin)
<body bgcolor="#000000" leftmargin="4" topmargin="0">

thanks for the reply. I'm a bit of a novice with HTML. To date I have
used FP 2002 to create my web pages. Is there anywhere on the web I can
read about replacing my frames with DHTML?

I have been looking into replacing the frames on my site
Alternatives are
Shared Borders - not recommended
Server Side Includes
FP Includes
Use of <div>s to contain each "frame"
(see the thread "Creating a frameless site - how do I position my <div>s")

DHTML is probably similar to the last option in that the "frames" are
included using JS.

boy I have some learning to do... ;-) Thanks for the reply. I might
just have to live with my frames for now.

I have worked out how to use the included content feature. Thanks for
your help and patience Stefan and Trevor. It seems to work very well.

Oscar,
That's great

I actually gave up on FP includes. Perhaps I'll try again :-))

Thanks for the reference.

It shows the generated code, but I would need to figure out how to use
FrontPage to do it.
(Probably very straightforward, but I haven't actually used FP in design
mode for ages. I just use it for uploads.)

I have put together some pages oustdie FP where I set up a template which
contains the included code and then I leave a space for the main code

e.g. the template is like this
<body>
<div id="div1">

</div>

<div id="div2">

</div>





<div id="div3">

</div>
</body>

Of course, div1 div2 and div3 have to have CSS to position them approriately

Sorry Trevor, my understanding of HTML is virtually zero. I simply
clicked on insert>web component then selected included content. Thanks
