Digital Tech (http://www.digitaltech.co.uk/)

WIll be my website, use, i do not know fully. but still.

ANyway, i've got that page so far, but i'm using a table, but i've decided i want a CELL in that table to infact be made into a Frame, so it all loads into that page....

Is anyone able to help me out and tell me what i need to do to make the CELL into a frame and how i refer each link to that frame?

Plllease  :dribble:

Have you tried using google for a tutorial on how to do such things?

What software are you using to write/compose your page?

I'm really confused at the approach you are taking.  I think you would be better losing the table and creating a framed page from the outset. A frame in a table is just asking for trouble IMHO as you are making things way over complicated.. Sticjk to one or the other but don't mix is my advice

Remember, just say NO!

I'd have to agree with Blueball and with a bit of javascript you could populate the contents of the cell with whatever you want. Just give the Cell an ID and then use getElementById(ID).innerHTML = "html code".  Just do a google on getElementById(ID).innerHTML and it should point you in the right direction.

heelo matey.

You could look into using an IFrame. Although i think some browsers dont support it.

Frames arn't the best to use as they prevent search engine spiders from getting in them(anyone know if there are solutions to this?). But that might not be important to you.

If u like i could wip up a template based on what youve already done. Html/css sort of thing, no tables of frames.  But only if you interested in learning html and css hand coding etc. let us know, happy to help :)

Does robots.txt have an inclusion property as well as their exclusion property?  I'm not sure, but if they did, that would be keen!
