Using Frames and Framesets 16
Four options are available from the Scroll drop-down list on the Frame Property inspector:
n Default: Leaves the use of scroll bars up to the browser.
n Yes: Forces scroll bars to appear regardless of the amount of content.
n No: Disables scroll bars.
n Auto: Turns scroll bars on if the content of the frame extends horizontally or vertically beyond
what the browser window can display.
The page shown in Figure 16-12 uses automatic scroll bars in the lower-right frame; you can see one on the
far right.
FIGURE 16-12
The top frame of this Web page has the scroll bars turned off, and the bottom-right frame has scroll bars enabled.
Resizing
Unless otherwise specified, frames are resizable by the user; that is, a visitor to your Web site can widen,
narrow, lengthen, or shorten a frame by dragging the border to a new position. You can disable this resizing
capability, however, on a frame-by-frame basis. In the Frame Property inspector, select the No Resize option
to turn off the resizing feature.
Although it might be tempting to select No Resize for every frame, it??™s best to enable resizing
to allow users to expand the frame if necessary except in frames that require a set size to
maintain their functionality (frames containing navigational controls, for example).
