Last time I used HTML was before Java was on the scene, so I feel like I'm re-learning.
I wanted to keep the site simple as simple as I could, so what I have are three iframes on the page with embedded pages, where the whole site just opens in these embedded pages. It all works great in firefox, as seen here...

but when I get to IE 6 or 7, the frames seem bigger than the space allotted, pushing the images on the right, further to the right, jacking the look of the whole site up...as seen here...

I'm wondering if this is a bug in IE I can get around or not. Is there a better way to tool this?

There's a lot of tr's and td's and I apologize. I hope it's not to arduous to look through.
Thanks a mill

It was 31 hours between those posts. We are not paid to debug your problems, most if not all of us have lives/jobs/school, but we get to it when we can and if we know what's wrong.

If you are needing help now, may I suggest kasamba? They have many experts just waiting to help you with problems.

A friend was dealing with iframes in IE and he had similar problems, if I remember well, he could eliminate it by setting the overflow properties of the enclosing div or the iframe, but I'm not sure what was the setting that finally worked for him (seemingly there was no logic in it).

Hmmm, not sure about all that business, but it could just be the weekend and the right person hasn't had a chance to look at it.

I'm sure someone will get to it.

Hi..
can you take a look at this please:
QUOTE

CODE

<iframe  name="tidbits" border="0" "width="291" height="201" bgcolor="cfd7cc" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>



all you have to do is to remove the Quotation mark you added before the width property and every thing will be Ok

Regards
