Thank you for this site.I am attempting to get away from using frames. I have only one page using frames with selection buttons on the left selecting what is placed in the right frame.I read your post above about using PHP, and will have to study that some to see if I can make it work.My PHP knowledge is limited, but in your post, I did not see a closing ?> and wonder if it is required? Currently, all I am doing with PHP is making sure any changes to my menu is applied to every page, and every page uses the same footer.Again thanks for the PHP code that I am now off to study.Bill I have studied some of your information here, and I always learn something each time.

I modified the two parts so that I have a header at the top and a navigation on the left which are fixed, whilst the content scrolls. The only problem I have found is the content of the paragraph "makescroll". It can include pictures, tables etc but if a "center" instruction or H1 H2 etc is used, the layout goes haywire. Very helpful article - thanks. The article about using css to replace frames was extremely useful.

It was pretty expected though. IE Mac is no longer supported by Microsoft and they themselves recommend people to upgrade to Safari or Firefox. Mind recommending those (excellent) browsers to your friends? @tom: Thanks for letter me know. It was pretty expected though.

I really like this solution, but I just thought I'd let you know that none of the examples even appear in IE Mac! Maybe you don't worry about these users, and I'm not an IE Mac user (just use it for testing) but I do know people that still browse with it! Hi.

This is just brilliant. I have spent some hours finding much more difficult and useless solutions to the "position:fixed;" problem in IE. Yours is simple, elegant... and works!! I have to test it in some more browsers but it looks great. And easy to understand for an spaniard like me ;-) Thank you Emil. This is just brilliant.

If you use PHP you can use something like <pre><code lang="php"><?php if ($_GET["page"] == "home") include("home.php"); else if ($_GET["page"] == "info") include("info.php"); ... ?%gt;</code></pre>. Then you use template.php?page=[page name here] as your url. @Alina: You use server-side scripting for that. If you use PHP you can use something like

Then add the image as a background.I'm not sure if that will work in your case, what will you do if the content overflows that area? how will you handle people will a smaller resolution? Designing for the web is quite different from print design. @William: try just making a div with the size you want and setting a height and width of the same size as the image.
