not quite sure what you mean but if your working with frames then the attribute in bold is probably what your looking for

<FRAME SRC="status_guide.htm" NAME=main SCROLLING=YES NORESIZE MARGINHEIGHT="0">

<DIV STYLE="overflow: auto; width: 480px; height: 300;
border-left: 1px gray solid; border-bottom: 1px gray solid;
padding:0px; margin: 0px">
<TABLE cellspacing=0 cellpadding=2>
<COL WIDTH=100><COL WIDTH=150><COL WIDTH=200>
<tr>
<td width=100 valign="top" nowrap>
Web Site
</td>
<td width=150 valign="top">
<a href="http://www.insideDHTML.com">Inside Dynamic HTML</a>
</td>
<td width=200 valign="top">
