I can see your Style sheet by browsing to http://brian.vallelunga.com/bv.css
but how do I see your underlying XML?

Looking at the source for the photos page I also cannot see you setting the
overflow property for the div to "scroll" or "auto"? I am interested in this
as a replacement for frames.

Thanks
Richard.

These days, if you're going to use CSS (which you should) you can get a
frames effect, without the actual use of frames. Basically, you set the
overflow property for a div to "scroll" or "auto" and you'll have what
looks like a frameset.

To see this technique in action, you can check out my photo section of
my website: http://brian.vallelunga.com/photos/ click on one of the
albums to launch a separate photo viewer. Notice that the list of icons
on the left is scrollable. Then check out the underlying XML and style
sheet.

Frames are the only option in some cases (eg when displaying embedded
non-html documents).  Bookmarking can be achieved by using a content
"engine" which takes a page id and builds the frameset dynamically.  I
hate frames too, but they're a necessary evil sometimes :-/
