HTML help needed

Invero · Dec 24, 2004

Hey all, I have a question to ask to those who are HTML gurus.

My webpage is set up with frames. (Yes, I know, frames are bad, blah blah blah) Most of the pages load just fine. However, a few of the pages (including my main page) load with an unneccessary horizontal scroll bar at the bottom. How do I get rid of that??

(It only shows up in IE, not Firefox)

www.fricknfrack.net is the link

Thanks!

Hmmm, I got it to load just fine and there was no horizontal scroll bar. I am using opera by the way.

The only frame scrollbar settings are on/off/auto

I'm guessing it is something to do with the CSS in blogger.html, that IE is interpretting differently to the other browsers (there's a suprise

)

As for what, I'm at a bit of a dead end, I've tried switching round values, but to no luck.

It happens on all my other pages too, the only way I was able to get rid of it was by deleting the !DOCTYPE at the beginning. But if I do that with the blog, everything goes haywire.

Oh well... maybe I'll just have to do something drastic. Thanks anyhoo

Thruthfully, if you make the top and side frames smaller, they would actually help the site. Also it works fine in Firefox for me. As for the hoizontal scroll bar, it didn't show up for me, I'm on a Win 2000 laptop running Firefox 1.0 final release.

Yeah, Firefox it works fine... it only shows up in the crappy browsers. Oh well, I should ditch the frames somehow anyways.

gives you something very similar, except done without frames. It uses CSS instead.
