Question about frames and editing area

[migaloman]

I've recently downloaded Web Easy 6 and have a couple questions. Concerning frames, is there a way to make only a single page that uses frames? The site is for a car dealership and I'd like to link to a trade in values page while keeping our logo and navigation bar displaying at the top of the screen. I feel silly asking this one, but I can also not figure out how to extend the page editing area in the program. There are pages I will need to create that will require more space than the editing area provides. I've tried dragging a block of text so that it is half way off of the screen so only the top half is visible. All the text is visible when the site is previewed but I can't scroll down to see the rest when editing the page in Web Easy. I'm using the pages designed for 800x600. Also, is there a way to make a custom template I can select when inserting a new page? Thanks in advance for any replies!

extend the pages by selecting page/ user defined & typing in for example
1024X 1200 , this will give a long page & average width, not many users have 800X600 these days.
To make a single page different to the rest as regards to size or frames etc then simply make it as a one page website & alter the links to & from the page to the rest of your website
The page or pages that are different need to be in a named folder with its own index.html

I hope this is not too far off topic here...

Screen sizes and resolution go hand in hand but are different. The stats show that screen resolutions are averaging just over 75% for the width of 1024 but that does not mean that viewers are seeing it all on their screens at once. If they have to scroll sideways, that is a definate NO-NO. Scrolling down is OK by the huge majority of viewers - people are used to that - but I tend to be on the safe side when it comes to width.

I do not want my viewers to have to scroll sidways. Most will immediatly leave the site if they have to do this to read.

Keep it smaller in the width and you should be OK. I design at around 780 pixels wide for all my websites.

Verb ;)

I am trying to post a reply that contains an example of a javascript, but everytime I go to post it, I get a page not found and the message doesn't post. Anyone have an answer to how to post sample javascript messages??

You should be able to post the script but if not, try a screen shot.

Don't know if this is what you are looking for, but I have been using this little java script for displaying other web pages from within my own website or other websites within a frame on my web page.

<iframe src="http://www.yourwebsite.com"
width="225" style="overflow-x: hidden" height="625" scrolling="auto" frameborder="0" marginwidth="5" marginheight="0">
</iframe>


Just select a text object and the link type custom script and paste this code in the custom script field. I also use this to display auto updated RSS feed contents on my web pages.
