Okay. So I'm building this site, just coding along and minding my own business-- and these HTML demons start messin' with me!!

The little diagram attached gives you the idea of what I want. I have the two black bar above my main part of the site, then I have a mapped navigation image on the left side and then all the information for the pages is sent into the little frame labeled "Frame where everything else goes."

Here's my problem: As I mentioned, my left frame contains ONLY a mapped image that acts as the navigation bar. I want to for that image (400x500) to fit perfectly into the frame with NO SCROLLBARS (ugly scroll bars)!

Can someone please help me? I desperate.

(BTW, I'm ONLY using HTML.)

Oh! Carp, I once had a frame layout that was really similar to yours... >__< I'll check and see if I have the coding for it saved somewhere. If not, I'm sure that Mithy will know what to do. XD

Eh....I've done frames before but yours look more complicated. How many windows/frames do you have already have..... four? Top, bottom, left, right? I've only done 2 -3.

Yeah, I've got four. I don't think that it SHOULD be complicated. But it's proving to be that way.

Try adding scrolling="no" to your <frame> tag

Also, remember that all html documents have margins to begin with, so if you want the frame to be absolutely 400px then add style="margin:0px;" to your body tag for the inner frame pages

i'll try to do an example.

----- Frame page--------------------

<html>
<head>
</head>
<frameset rows="150px, *, 150px" border="0" frameborder="0" framespacing="0">
<frame Name="header" src="black.html" scrolling="no" />
<frameset cols="402px, *" border="0" frameborder="0" framespacing="0">
<frame Name="Nav" scrolling="no" src="sub1.html" />
<frame Name="Content" scrolling="yes" src="sub2.html" />
</frameset>
<frame Name="footer" src="black.html" scrolling="no" />
</frameset>
</html>

----nav bar-----(didn't put in the map though)

<html>
<head></head>
<body style="margin:0px;">
<img width=400 height=500 />
</body>
