1. Re: scroll bar doesn't show up in IE or Chrome or Safari -- only in Firefox
Nancy O. Apr 21, 2011 2:18 PM (in response to grape jan)Frames & Framesets are the kiss of death in modern web design. Mobile devices and Smartphones don't support them. HTML5 doesn't support them. DW CS5 doesn't support them. And if those reasons don't convince you, there are a boat load of usability problems associated with Framed sites. See below for details.

In short, don't use Frames. There are much better ways to manage your site that will create less problems for you and your site visitors. Do a DW Help (F1) or Google web search for DW Templates and/or Server-Side Includes.

John Waller Apr 21, 2011 7:28 PM (in response to grape jan)Although they work, they create unnecessary work for you down the track and there are better ways of doing things.
Server Side Includes are much more efficient.
