Vertical and Horizontal Frames that Scroll Together Matt Rapoport 10-07-2004

 If you open a new spreadsheet in Excel and click on cell B1 and then
go to Windows -> Freeze Panes it will create something similar to 4
frames. There will be a horizontal pane that contains 2 parts and a
vertical pane that contains 2 parts. I've labelled the "frames" below
...

1 2
3 4

Here's the tricky part - if you scroll to the right, frames 1 and 3
will stay put and BOTH frames 2 and 4 will scroll. If you scroll
down, frames 1 and 2 will stay put and BOTH frames 3 and 4 will
scroll.

I need to create this sort of functionality in a web page. The
problem is, if I create html frames I can't achieve this scrolling
behaviour. The reason is, in order for it to work frame 4 must be
able to scroll with BOTH frame 2 and frame 3 - depending on which way
the user wants to scroll.

Does anyone know if this is possible?

Thanks a lot,

Matt

Not very easy to do.
Just to say, I saw a Mozilla Bugzilla entry for that some time ago. Can't
recall the bug number sorry :/
