So I started putting a website together and I went with frames (it's been a while since I've done websites and it's how I used to know things).

The problem is when you go down in resolution a scroll bar forms in each frame. I was wondering if there was a better way to do it where when resolution went down it kind of expanded each frame so that the only scroll bars were for the browser window itself, if that makes sense.

I'm guessing there is a way to do this because some major corporate websites seem to work this way.

To show the example of what I'm working on http://www.thebrocadeblackbird.com/weddingmain.htm

Thank you.

That depends on why you're using frames. If you're just using them to combine multiple files into a single "document", then see the FAQ entry How do I include one file in another?

That's because they don't use frames, so the problem never occurs.

Include the header and menu on every page. That's no problem even if you do it manually, if you don't have many pages. The gallery I'd rather give its own page(s). Or possibly put it below the main text. As it is now, I have to scroll to see the whole image, and that doesn't give the right impression.

Another thing, if you don't mind. The text should be real text and not an image of text.
* It would be easier to read, because it would be clearer
* It would be easier to read because the text could be resized to fit the reader's eyesight
* Relevant bits could be copied to the clipboard
* Search engines would be able to pick it up and index your site. Now there's nothing for them.

The scrolling down to see the whole image only happens on lower resolutions, which is where my problem is coming from (I personally never run a machine below 1280x960 or 1280x1024).

Even if I put the Logo/NavBar/Bottom image combined into each page (which isn't a big deal) I would still have the images to manage. So I would need a new setup to allow a click (or mouse over since that is what I plan on eventually doing) bring up the full size image in the image box. So if you know a way of doing that, I'm guessing maybe some kind of java script? Then I could work on combining everything else onto the same page.

Unless I'm missing some key aspect of preprocessing, it can't do what I want. I'm not sure that SSI could do it either. I could try IFRAME for the enlarged images, and try working the rest of the frames into one main document. Does someone happen to know how often you find a browser that doesn't support IFRAME?

I have tried to convince the g/f to let me make the text actual text. Sometimes people just want to do things the way they want to do them

I'm not talking about scrolling down. I'm talking about having to scoll the big image horizontally to see all of it.

I can't run higher resolution than 1024*768 and I never maximize the browser window if the site doesn't force me to, like yours does. It isn't about what resolution YOU use. It's about what size the visitors browser window may have and that you can't know.

The frames aren't helping with any of this.
