IR>Here's another quick question 
IR>How do I link my pages and use frames properly?
IR>I am trying it free hand but it's not working.
Well, first you need to pages...one for the left and one for the right or one 
for the top and one for the bottom.  then you need a frame page which 
contains the links to the two pages.
in between the  tags, you need to use the  tag.  if 
you want one frame on the left and one on the right then you'd use the 
COLS="__,*" attribute of the  tag.  Where the __ is, youd put a 
percent value.  So if you want your left frame to take up 30% of the screen, 
you type:
 -I have no idea what the * is for.
If you want to have frames on the top and bottom as opposed to left and right
then you you would use ROWS instead of COLS.   
Following that you'd have the   tags.  In between the 
two tags, you type what you want to show up if the person viewing your page 
doesn't have a browser that supports frames.  Ususally you would put 
something like this:

Oops, your browser does not support frames.  To download a browser that does 
support frames, you can download one from Netscape">http://home.netscape.com">Netscape Communications

If the person viewing you page does have a browser that supports frames, then 
the above tags will be ignored.
To define your left side frame, you'd type:

To define that you also have a frame on the right side of the screen you'd 
type:

then close your frame tag with a 
remember all this is in the Header of your HTML file.  A whole frame page 
would look something like this:



                                                                    
 
Oops, your browser does not support frames.  To download a browser that does
support frames, you can download one from Netscape">http://home.netscape.com">Netscape Communications
