Out of interest why are you using a frame based layout? SE hate frames, most people I talk too wouldn't go near a framed website if you paid them and, in my opinion, CSS can do everything you need.

So, what's the excuse?

Posted by EastCoastStar
my excuss is it will save time and its not a public website, its strictly for Disney to use. (for my company)

anyone???? come onnnn

I've always read: "stay away from frames!"
And it's much more difficult to handle them, besides looking much more "unprofessional" .

Anyway, if you still wanna use them this might help you:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/wor[....]bjects/frameset.asp?frame=true

Check for the "ROWS" and "COLS" attributes.

The code should be something like this:
<FRAMESET rows="*,89" border="1" FRAMESPACING="0" TOPMARGIN="0" LEFTMARGIN="0" MARGINHEIGHT="0" MARGINWIDTH="0">
<FRAMESET name="framemain" cols="216,*" border="1" frameborder="1" FRAMESPACING="6" TOPMARGIN="0" LEFTMARGIN="0" MARGINHEIGHT="0" MARGINWIDTH="0">
<FRAME name="leftFRame" src="link" TOPMARGIN="0" LEFTMARGIN="0" MARGINHEIGHT="0" MARGINWIDTH="0" FRAMEBORDER="1" BORDER="1"></FRAME>
<FRAME name="realMainFrame" src="link" FRAMEBORDER="no" BORDER="0"></FRAME>
</FRAMESET>
<FRAME name="bottom" src="link" scrolling="no" border="0" frameborder="no" noresize TOPMARGIN="0" LEFTMARGIN="0" MARGINHEIGHT="0" MARGINWIDTH="0"></FRAME>
</FRAMESET>

A bit more readable:
<FRAMESET whole>
<FRAMESET top holder>
<FRAME left></FRAME>
<FRAME main></FRAME>
</FRAMESET>
<FRAME bottom></FRAME>
</FRAMESET whole>

Yeah, CSS. Cascading Style Sheets. It's how I can change the colour scheme of my entire site in five minutes and have that kick ass menu made from a simple unordered list

Try this for starters: http://www.w3schools.com/css/

thanks
