Can't Scroll on a FrameSet Type Website

J

JCO

I have a frameset website that does not display correctly because the frame
is not split correctly. I want the frames to be adjustable by the user,
with scroll bars.

I set the frames to display scroll bars, but it is not doing that. Can
someone tell me what might be missing in the code (that is somehow not
getting inserted).

Thanks

Scrollbars only appear in framesets if they are needed due to the resolution
setting of the monitor that is viewing the page with the frameset.
Every page that I viewed that needed scrollbars had them.
In other words, visitor A using an 800 by 600 monitor resolution may see
scrollbars.
Visitor B using a higher setting won't see or need them.

right click/ frame properties there are options for scroll bars and allow
resize etc. make sure you're publishing your changed frameset.
I'd lose the page transitions since they only slow the page load, or make it
seem that way. (imho)

Right! I understand all that. But when viewing on my computer, I can view
w/ my browser in a smaller window and the scroll bars should appear. This
doesn't happen.

At the customers site, where he uses a very low resolution, words are being
cut off. His scroll bars are not showing up either.

I do want to add.... I believe one page or more does work correctly. I need
the scrolls to show up on all frame pages...until I can get these modified
to look better than they do now.

I've tried changing the properties. It is not working. It is as if the
change in the page property is not putting the specific code into the page
to provide the scroll. That is what I was wanting to know about... in case
I should add them manually.

I agree on the page transition but that is what the customer requested.

Check the framset pages for the frames that don't give scrollbars for this:
noresize

and remove it.

I see no problem with scrollbars appears on your pages, including the
framesets.

Try viewing the site using my Site Resolution Checker/Viewer:

In classes/classes.htm the scrolling attribute is not set for the top frame.
In equipment/equipment.htm the scrolling attribute is not set for the top
frame.
In newsletter/newsletter.htm the scrolling attribute is not set for the top
frame, frames are not resizable.
Your search page has no navigation to the rest of the site.
All other frameset pages produce scroll bars when the browser size is
reduced sufficiently, in some cases this meant reducing width to 360px.
In ie6 I could see no sign of text being lost, except in framed pages as
above.

I'm not sure what the deal was before.
