I recently finished our new web page, and "almost" all is acceptable.

You will have to look at the page to see what I am talking about: www.edicionescc.com

In the "catálogo" section, you select a category on the left, a title on the right, and then the information on that title appears in the middle.

The problem is the scrolling bars. The other pages are done with tables so there is just scrolling bar the right. But in the frame page the one on the right only serves for that frame. And since the information in each frame varies in size, each one needs a separate scrolling bar.

So the question: Is there a way to have only one scrolling bar for everything on the frame page like the pages done with tables?

Thanks

The page you referenced is not avialable, but yes you can suppress scroll bars except for those frames you want them on.

In the frames tags set SCROLLING = to yes, no, or auto depending on your needs.

Strange you could not open the page. I just did it.

Anyway, yes, the scrolling bars can be turned on and off, but when there are three frame columns, and the size of the file in each varies considerably, at times the one of the far right is short, so if I put a scrolling bar on that one only, it is not possible to scroll the whole page.

So what I would like to do is put a scrolling bar on the right side only, but that would scroll the whole page even if the file in that frame was short.

Hope that helps.

Then try using a single page with IFrames instead.
