HTML related to DMusic, or HTML in general?

Veracohr	Date: October 21, 2006 @ 5:33 AM I've got a question about HTML, but it's a general usage question, it doesn't relate to DMusic. Would I be hanged if I asked it? Would anyone be able to answer it? It's about frames.

GeneHilbert	Date: October 21, 2006 @ 1:23 PM The real beauty of the net - is the fact that if you want to learn about a subject. Do a search and read the results. Odds are you'll find what you need or want to know. http://www.dogpile.com/info.dogpl/search/web/html%252Bframes/1/-/1/-/-/-/1/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/417/top/-/-/-/1
Veracohr	Date: October 21, 2006 @ 2:28 PM Yeah, UTFSE, I know. I've searched, but I can't find an answer, which is why I'm asking here. I've got the World Wide Web Consortium bookmarked so I can go through the HTML and CSS specs when I need to know something, but I couldn't find any answers. Okay, here's the question. Hopefully it makes sense. I'm using inline frames, one as a navigation frame for the content of the other. When a size isn't defined, they display at some default size regardless of the size of the content. This is fine for width, I just set it to 100%, but the height is posing a problem for me. I don't want a scroll bar on the frame, I only want a scroll bar on the whole page. That's easy enough--I just set the frames to not scroll, and define the height big enough that it doesn't cut off the content. The problem is that the two different content pages I have are different sizes, and when I set the height of the content frame large enough to display all the content, the content page that is smaller is still the same large frame size. So when the smaller page is selected, there's a scrollbar present that is unnecessary. Does this make sense? I want the size of the content frame to be defined by the size of the page being displayed in it, not by an arbitrary value. Here's the page: http://www.veracohr.com/releasework.html Click on the "Unreleased" link at notice the pointless scroll bar.
jack	Date: October 21, 2006 @ 3:12 PM Did you fix it? I'm using Firefox 2 and I'm not experiencing the error. (Also, the site is broken in IE 7)
GeneHilbert	Date: October 21, 2006 @ 4:07 PM I saved the page and was playing around with it....... I couldn't get rid of it either.... I don't know brother. I'll try again when I have a little more time. The page is kewl, nice and clean. One suggestion - you might want to consider a different font color. The grey/silver doesn’t show up well against the white. Especially at the bottom “Anamnesis can be purchased at the DMusic Store for $6.” It just disappears……..

It's light grey text on a black background. Perhaps I fixed the problem (below). Jack: I didn't fix anything. There's no scroll bar when you click on the "Unreleased" link? I downloaded FF 2 to try, and it's still there. Probably my screen resolution. I like to be able to read things without sticking my face within a foot of my screen, so I set my resolution larger than some. Thanks for the heads up. It looked fine in FF and Safari, but I found problems in Opera. I fixed what I saw, and hopefully I fixed the problems you saw in IE too. I'm on a Mac and can't test IE 7. Thanks for the help. I guess there's not a way to do what I want with HTML.
ChillinBuzz	Date: October 22, 2006 @ 8:34 AM Veracohr, check your messages if you haven't already, i noticed you used a fixed pixel height when i've tested a percentage (took a few attempts to find the best percentage but it works, at least in IE 6 and FF 1.5.0.7)
