Frames in IE 6 & 7

**adamsen** · 01-31-2009, 06:08 AM

Are frames allowed in IE 6 and 7. I am almost sure that it´s disallowed in IE 6, i have tested it, but I can´t download IE 7. This my code:

HTML Code:

<frameset cols="225,*">
		<frame src="../menuframe.html">
		<frame src="../start.html" name="showframe">
</frameset>

Ensure you are calling the correct file.

Frames are supported on both IE6 and 7, but you should be aware that frames are evil.

More info on frames:

Hope that helps.

	</frameset>
</body>
</html>

menuframe.html:

HTML Code:

<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<tr width=230>
		<td>

How are your files laid (directory) ?

If you can minimize the code that reproduces the issue and attach it in a zip file, then we might figure this out for you.

**adamsen** · 02-01-2009, 11:24 AM

Sorry, my host doesn´t have to much space, but can I send the zip by email? What´s your adress?

**rangana** · 02-01-2009, 08:52 PM

Just attach the file here. The board can accept zip attachment.

I am going to make a wild guess on this, but I am guessing that your frames are in the same directory as the frameset. Try changing the "../" to "./" (two periods to one)

**adamsen** · 02-02-2009, 10:50 AM

Sorry jthayne, the directory looks like this:

--website //Folder
--menuframe.html
--forside314926535.html //To show in showframe
----tests //Folder
----navframetest.html

**adamsen** · 02-02-2009, 10:51 AM

How can I attatch the file here? I´m new.

**HTML** · 02-02-2009, 12:52 PM

You will have to click "post reply" you cannot do it from the quickreply below the thread.

Once you have clicked "post reply" scroll down and you will see the blue "manage attachements" button.

**adamsen** · 02-02-2009, 01:24 PM

Here is the files

**rangana** · 02-02-2009, 09:09 PM

Remove the body tags:

Code:

<html>
<head><title>Vellerup</title></head>
<body>
	<frameset cols="225,*">
		<frame src="../menuframe.html">
		<frame src="../forside31415926535.html" name="showframe">
	</frameset>
</body>
</html>
