ok, so here's my website:

www.mgsvideos.com/musicworld/

This is just a small thing for a school assignment. umm basically, my problem is that i have to build the site out of frames, which automatically stretch to fit a page. :(

So, it looks completly different on my computer than it does on my teachers computer because his has a bigger screen.. so my question is, how can i stretch teh deminsions of the PAGE itself, like i need the height to be 1088, and width to be 1008. So, if that works, there shoudl be a scrollbar on the side of the page that allows me to scroll down instead of cutting the bottom off. anyone have any other ideas? >< i don't know how to extend the page, or what i should do.

barf i hate frames so much...are you sure you cant do it in a table instead?? but if not, i think you can give your frames a height and or width atribute

good luck

oh and i didn't notice this before but you have the wrong target for your links because i click a link and get the whole page in a frame rather than a frame.. if that makes any sense

hmm.. well im new at this as well, and didn't pay much attention in the frames section of class.. but i think you can give them pixels by saying 30,400,*,20

and * will auto fill whatever the remaining pixels are.. wish I could help some more, and why dont you allow scrolling? it kinda cuts your frames..
if it helps, your code is easy to read :)

lol, the scroll bars look horrible. That's why i want to stretch my page out, so it doesnt cut off info.

"but i think you can give them pixels by saying 30,400,*,20 "


I stick that inside the <FRAMESET> tag? what represents width, and what represents height? o.o

Then you might think about changing the content because when you cut it off like that it looks even worse than a scroll bar.
and yes if I remember correctly it does go in the frameset tag... but don't quote me on that. and I just realized that I did my frames assignment with easy frames and an iframe..

this was what I did for class (note: i didn't get full credit i think i lost two points because a couple of my pages opened frames in frames or something)

lol, thanks man. i appreicate the help, but i think im going to leave it like this. I'm just going to attempt to make the table corners curved (which i have NO clue on how to do that), and then fix links and stuff.

i tried..good luck.. and the only way i knew how to do the curved edges was to do a curved pic reverse it, then put in the corners of a table
