I can attach or maybe put up a link on a website where you can look at the code and the css. But regardless of any test caste, nothing changes the fact that whatever the html code, whatever the php code, these are sonstant and nothing is changed. Switch between id frame and id frame1 and things change. nothnig, I meant, nothing is changed in between. The difference is in the css, and nothing else.
