Printable View
expanding my html knowledge, and not sure this is do-able...
I have a frame page, nested top and left, with main activity changing in center....all of these pages have a colored background which is displaying correctly when the page loads..
However until all the pages load, I have a white background. So it looks like patchwork as each frame loads (with a colored background)
is there anyway to set the back color of the frameset ?
Have you tried using "bgcolor" for the frames ?
Else - look up the HTML 4.01 reference at www.w3c.org, search after "<frame>"
Thanks.
I tried the <frame> thought, but it is almost like it needs to happen a step before that....
Looking at the link you sent (thanks!) looks like I need to do it before the <frameset> with a CSS.
Just looked at CSS quickly the other day, and shy'd away since I thought they werent supported in all browsers.....(any thoughts?)
I will look at the CSS idea more later tonite.
thanks for the suggestions :D
CSS is definatly the way - I just thought you wanted to do it with HTML.
If you wanna learn CSS goto www.w3schools.com and take their tutorial.
Cheers!
From what I have seen, I would like to explore CSS and will look at the link....for the tutorial...
I just shy'd away from them...since I thought they werent supported in much other than...m$oft browsers....
was I wrong..? :confused:
Very wrong indeed - all browsers now a days have CSS2 support. and IE/NS 4 has CSS1, so don't worry about compatability.
Cheers!
Thanks for clearing that up !
now I will approach this from a new angle....(after some help from the tutorial I am sure)....
:D :D
it may just be a good day after all !
Quite the opposite actually, the worst problem of CSS design is the number of bugs in the IE implementation.
