everyone keeps telling me that frames are dead and so i feel the need
to finally rewrite my 'dead' site (www.groovydomain.com) so that it
doesn't use them by somehow crafting some slick CSS that the same
everyones are telling me is the new 'fashionable' way.
the problem is everytime i try i get something that almost works on IE
but not firefox or vice-versa. it seems that browsers have not yet
standardized on alot of the CSS stuff. and even in the best cases i
just cannot seem to get the same behavior as the site has using the
frames. I have spent days trying all sorts of hackery to no success
and in any case it all looks hopelessly more complex and convoluted
then the code does using frames. The goal is not to change the look
or behavior of the site at all other then just replacing the <frames>
definitions with some CSS and the minimal # of DIVs. (ie. when
scrolling the main frame i dont want to scroll the menu or the logo.
also the words should wrap when someone resizes their window so you
can still read the story without having to scroll left and right.)
Words of wisdom anyone?
