Hi,
I started a website (on geocities) and I'm trying to put in frames. Just simple ones, I want one on the left side, and on the top. I'm not too good with HTML, only know the basics. Could someone tell me where I can find the code that will put frames in? I tried this tutorial thing, but when I submitted the code, absolutely nothing happened.
If you could help me out, that would be great :)
Something like this should work for you:
<frameset cols="200,*" frameborder="no" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="left.htm" name="leftframe" scrolling="NO" noresize>
<frame src="main.htm" name="mainframe">
</frameset>

Hey, I'm still getting nothing.
I've got "left.htm" as the URL for one of my pages, and same with main, but nothing's happening...

I'm sorry -- like I said, I'm clueless with computer. When I open the file, I get a nice, framed thing. What do I do with it?

I'm getting it as a zip file, and all I'm getting is the page, not the code. How I transfer the page into the yahoo page builder thing?
Here is the source of that page:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/frameset.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<frameset cols="200,*" framespacing="0">
<frame src="left.htm" name="leftFrame" scrolling="NO" noresize>
<frame src="main.htm" name="mainFrame">
</frameset>

I think it should, because I've seen other geocities pages with frames. I don't think there's another way, but thanks so much for trying to help me! I really appreciate it :)
I just took a look at geocities...
When you first sign into geocities, do you see Easy Upload on the right? That will allow you to upload files from your computer to your geocities account.

I tried, but when I tried to load it, the shippy file didn't show.
It worked just fine for me...Did you unzip the file and then upload the three pages that were inside it?

Uh, no.
How do you unzip the file?
In Windows XP, you can do it by opening the .zip file and hitting extract files in the top left. Otherwise, you will need a program such as winzip (http://www.winzip.com/). You can download the evaluation version...

Wait, one more thing!
I right click and get 'extract to'. Where do I extract them to?
Where ever you want. Just remember where you do it to, becuase when you go to upload the files, you will need to browse to the folder that you extracted to.
