Frames problem

[Ray]

I have a problem with a site I am designing using frames.
When I view the site locally from my PC it all works
fine. And when I published it it all worked fine too.
I've made some what I thought were minor changes to the
buttons on the left-hand border and now the frames don't
work. Anybody got any ideas. the url is:

Hi Ray,

Everthing seemed to work just fine in IE 6.

Thanks for looking, yes it seems OK to me now. All I did
was make another small change to the left border and it
works fine. It seems to be an intermittent problem that
I'll have to learn to live with!

FP navigation components are not meant to be used when working with frames.

Is there a way around this, or should I just not use
either Frames or FP Navigation? The problem is that I am
hoping to make this site as easy to use as possible, so
that when the user adds a new page, and then adds it to
the Navigation diagram it automatically adds it to the
navigation buttons on the left frame.

Use one or the other, but not both.

If you want to use FP Navigation, then use Shared Borders.
If you want to use Frames, then you have to manual manage the navigation.

Thanks - it's a pity because Frames give such a smooth
transition between pages.

 

[Thomas A. Rowe]

Frames, unless created dynamically, cause problems for users, as they can
not bookmark individual pages, and if coming from a search engine, the pages
are loaded outside of the frameset, with no means of navigating the site,
etc.
