mwbouwkamp 0 Report post Posted October 23, 2006 Hi,So apparently frames are not done anymore. The nice thing about frames was, that you could have a nice menu, which was always positioned at the same spot. I am currently constructing a Joomla page, as I am working on a website that has to be eddited by people that don't know too much about html. Is there any way to get a menu that does not move while scrolling down? Please help.Marco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only thing I would prefer is that you don't see any movement. I just want a static menu that is not moving, but which stays positioned at one particular spot on the page.

mwbouwkamp 0 Report post Posted October 23, 2006 What I mean is, that I want the menu to stay in place also when I scroll down. That is exactly what I am looking for. I just hope they don't fix the IE6 "bug" that makes this possible. Also, I started with my post that frames are no longer used a lot. Why is that anyway!

jlhaslip 4 Report post Posted October 23, 2006 Couple of reasons.Mostly because the W3c says they aren't or won't be allowed. Also, you can not bookmark a framed site properly. It always records the Index page and not the page you are actually looking at. If you are at the page http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/, it would record http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ or something like that, and not the detailed page you were viewing.Additionally, this makes the site NOT Search Engine Friendly.
