disappearing frames

D

Dragon

Hi,

I created an index.htm file with 4 frames in it. After attaching htm files
to these frames I tried to preview the page. I can only see the top frame
and the rest do not show there files. In the FP 2003 editor I can see all
the frames and their files but they do not show up (except top.htm) in the
built-in previewer or the browser preview. Could someone please tell me why
would it do that? I will include the contents of my index.htm.

Thank you.

Are the other pages in your FP site and saved
- if on other domains you need to set IE security to allow cross domain frames

All the files are in the same folder and can also be edited by front page.
In FP, in design view I can see all my files showing up in all the frames
but they simply do not show when I look do preview, except for the top
frame.

Check your frame names and targets as being valid
- Post your frameset code snippet

Stafan,

I checked and everything seems to be like it should be. I posted the frame
code in my first post (below). Do you need to see anything else? Also, if my
htm file name does not match with what frames are suppose to see, wouldn't
that make it so I can not see them in the design mode as well?

Thank you

Ok, forgot it was in prior post
Change your frameset code to

<frameset rows="46,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="top.htm" name="topFrame" scrolling="no" noresize marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">
<frameset cols="213,*" framespacing="0" frameborder="NO" border="0">
<frameset rows="80,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="systype.htm" name="sysFrame" scrolling="no" noresize marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">
<frame src="tasks.htm" name="leftFrame" scrolling="auto" noresize marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">
</frameset>
<frame src="main.htm" name="mainFrame" scrolling="auto" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">
</frameset>
</frameset>

And make sure all your pages have:
<body topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" rightmargin="0" bottommargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">

<IMHO>Your code is too complex - I am surprised it shows in normal View.

Try this (which reduces the number of framesets involved from 6 to 3):

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/frameset.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Installation Guide</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<base target="mainFrame">
</head>
<frameset rows="46,* "frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="top.htm" name="topFrame" scrolling="no" noresize >
<frameset cols="213,*" framespacing="0" frameborder="NO" border="0">
<frameset rows="80,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="systype.htm" name="sysFrame" scrolling="no" noresize >
<frame src="systype.htm" name="sysFrame" scrolling="no" noresize >

You guys are geniuses. :)

I guess IE was crapping out trying to create all those frames which were
created by FP to begin with.

Thank you very much.
