differences between Netscape/Mozila and IE

M

Mr. x

Hello.
I am first using frameset.
When I do something like this :

<frameset cols = "*,180" FRAMEBORDER=0 BORDER=0 FRAMESPACING=0
FRAMEPADDING=0>
<frame src = "table1.html" SCROLLING="NO" NORESIZE />
<frame src = "table2.html" SCROLLING="NO" NORESIZE />
</frameset>


and in table2.html I do something like this :

....
<table id = "news_border">
<tr>
<td>
<img src = "mygif.gif" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
....

I see that in IE the right pixel of the mygif.gif is exactly 10 pixels
greater then if I open the page in Netscape.

(i.e if the right pixel is in IE at x-position : 700, then in Netscape it is
690).

What can I do that the position of the pixel in IE and Netscape will be the
same ?

Thanks :)

Nothing. Allow for it.

I test for image aligned to right,
so in IE there is no gap to the right,
but in netscape there is a fixed gap to the right.
Can I move the margin from the right in Netscape ?

Thanks :)

You can try
<body style="margin:0;">

Where should I use <body style="margin:0;"> ?
FrameSet doesn't allow the <body section>
and I try in the inner frame html (i.e. table2.htm),
but with no change.

Thanks :)

First let me note from another message what browsers you are using:

I have IE 6.0 and netscape 7.1, and Mozilla 1.5.

"net.il"? You're in Israel? Are you using english or hebrew versions of the
versions? That also might make some difference with the "dot" and <LI> issue in
your other thread, depending what char-set or font you are using. Try
displaying the "dot" bullet with (not including quotes:) "•" and if it
works, no need for the LI, (but you would need a BR to separate items.) Here's
a Netscape faqtoid quote:

"Netscape allows the TYPE attribute to be used within the UL element so that
irrespective of the indent level, the bullet type can be specified thus :
TYPE=disc, or TYPE=circle, or TYPE=square." Netscape also allows the use of the
TYPE attribute in the LI element as well, (but that's a lot of extra typing! :)

(And now, sneaking back across the border to the current thread:)

<frameset cols = "*,180" FRAMEBORDER=0 BORDER=0 FRAMESPACING=0
FRAMEPADDING=0>
<frame src = "table1.html" SCROLLING="NO" NORESIZE />

You might try the older FRAMEBORDER="no" in the FRAMESET, instead of or in
addition to the FRAMEBORDER=0.
<frame src = "table2.html" SCROLLING="NO" NORESIZE />

Grrr... uh... Grin! What's that NORESIZE property doing glaring out at us? But,
seriously, keep in mind that people using a lower screen resolution, or
non-maximized browsers may need to adjust the border between frames, or use
scroll bars, to see some of the content. Never force people to accept your idea
of how small a frame should be if you don't absolutely need to.

SECRET SCROLLING TRICK: To see overflow content not visible because of
non-scrolling or non-resizable frames, position your mouse pointer in an upper
left blank area of frame, hold main mouse button, and drag down and to the
right to select/highlight contents until your pointer is at the bottom of the
frame or slightly beyond, and in good browsers the content will scroll upwards
to continue the selection, the same as if it had scroll bars. (Assuming there
is some non-HREF blank space around clickable images, so the browser doesn't
think you are trying to drag and drop a link to another application. :)

Shalom. (Happy friendly peace ! :)
