front page sucks, im using dreamweaver

and hey i know frames suck, everyone says it. some kind of alternative?
 

the alternative to frames would be........no frames

there are very few circumstances where i can tolerate the usage of frames....

<html>
<head>
<title>Welcome to my cheap site!</title>
</head>

<frameset rows="*" cols="*,132" framespacing="0" frameborder="YES" border="1">
<frame src="main.html" name="mainFrame">
<frame src="sidebar.html" name="leftFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize>
</frameset>
<noframes><body>

</body></noframes>

</html>

I think you need to put off the client and get some sleep, you're already babbling and sketching gibberish :)

Sounds like you want
- the equivalent of a normal site's top tabs / main navigation as the rightmost frame,
- he middle frame is sub-menu / sub-navigation changes with each click on the main links
- the left frame changes with each click on a link in the middle frame.

Sort of like a normal website turned sideways.

I spend more of my time scraping HTML than writing it, but it sounds like you need a frameset where you name each frame, then either
a. the links target="framename"
b. the links use javascript like document.framename.location ="xxx" -or- call a script function in the page with the frameset.

Good luck, I've a soft, fluffy pillow with my name on it. :evil:

You can't even do a simple set of frames like that? How did this guy hire you in the first place?

right-o even a web developer who has never used frames should have enough knowledge to: a) borrow some source code b) learn It's people who make sh1tty (websites but still call themselves webdesigners) who are going to make the internet suck. Oh, and also ruin the reputation of real developers.
