I know....Heard very often of the saying " Frames are Evil" ;-) But there is one thing that we do not want to compromise on... It is the resizing of the width of the navigation tree on the left. I know horizontal scroll bars will help but our user interface guide lines do not accept that. The user should have the facility to drag the width of the navigation tree on the left, just like how you do on the Eclipse Navigation View Pane.

We had the same problem. And firstly begin to work with frames but got many problems using them. One of them is architectural because for every server side action you should decide weather we need refresh neighbor frames or not. And it was problem - it can be solved but not very cleanly.

Now we use tiles and task about resizing was solved by our good javascript-er ;) Only thng that I dont like it's necessity to wrap any text with verbatium tag. It realy makes js page not readable. So we look forward for tapestry like component definition ;)


I have not come across any solution for this other than frames yet. Probably a custom container component similar to JScrollPane in Java Swing might help. But such a component on the HTML rendering?? *sigh* Need a lot of time for me to do that which is not at our disposal. -----Original Message-----

        hi i know this is probably not the answer you like, but why do
        you want
        to use a frameset? wouldn't it be better to use tiles, frames
        always
        cause problems, especially dealing withbowser compatibility
