back to contraining 3 frames in a box? Geoff Cox 11-18-2007

Hello,

I appreciate the idea of moving from frames to css but just for the
moment I would like to constrain 3 frames (2 rows, row 1 has 1 column
and row 2 has 2 columns) to the same size box as the rest of the web
site - i.e. a box which takes up 75% of the browser window, using css
not tables for layout.

How do I keep the 3 frames within this box? Can it be done even?

Cheers

Geoff

Chris - that's fine as a css approach but if the bottom left <div has
some selections which use a php file to search a mysql database, how
do I get the results to appear in the bottom right had <div??!!

Easy, with the PHP that you use to build the page! Essentially the th e
steps are:

1. Get the parameters of the request, either via GET or POST depending
on your method.

2. Query the database

3. Sort and process the results

4. Build the page

5. When you get to target DIV in your markup echo the database results,
formated to taste!

Take care,
