Hey, I'm trying to get my portfolio site up and it's been a while since I did html. Everything is working alright, except the portfolio page drifts off to one side in IE and sometimes in firefox. As in half the time I open it in firefox it's off-center. This is very confusing. It's fine in Safari. Also it's the same as the other pages, just with different content. Where have I gone wrong?

Thanks!

The browser leaves space for a scrollbar on the bottom frame, but not on the top frame. This pushes the content of the bottom frame to the left.

I recommend not using frames.

Well, that's obvious now. I'd rather the flash banner didn't reload everytime someone clicked a link, is there another way to get around that without frames?

I also recommend not using Flash for your site navigation.

And IMHO, if the navigation on every page is so big that you don't want to reload it on every page, then it's too big.

I have already gotten rid of the frames, and if the user has problems with flash then I doubt they'd be viewing a flash developer's portfolio site. It loads quickly, I'd just prefer it didn't have to.
