Hello,
What do I need to do to stop that?

I have stated the noresize attribute on the frames.

Thanks in advance.

Show us your frameset HTML.

Have you got percentages in there?

This is my code:

Code: 
<frameset  rows=&quot;20,80&quot; frameborder=&quot;NO&quot; framespacing=&quot;0&quot;>
    <frame name=&quot;1&quot; src=&quot;Year.cfm&quot; marginwidth=&quot;10&quot; marginheight=&quot;20&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; noresize>
    <frame name=&quot;2&quot; src=&quot;details.cfm&quot; marginwidth=&quot;10&quot; marginheight=&quot;10&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; noresize>
</frameset>

Thank you

See what an asterisk can do for you...

Code: 
<frameset  rows=&quot;20,*&quot; frameborder=&quot;NO&quot; framespacing=&quot;0&quot;>
    <frame name=&quot;1&quot; src=&quot;Year.cfm&quot; marginwidth=&quot;10&quot; marginheight=&quot;20&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; noresize>
    <frame name=&quot;2&quot; src=&quot;details.cfm&quot; marginwidth=&quot;10&quot; marginheight=&quot;10&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; noresize>
</frameset>

If I use the asterisk like that, then I loose one of the frames...frame name=1 doesn't show.

I tried rows=&quot;*,*&quot; , that doesn't work either.

* basically means that any number of pixels can be used for the bottom frame, allowing you to resize the window to any size. If you define both frames as *, things go haywire and your browser farts.


The following works:
Code: 
<html>

<head>
<title>Frameset</title>
</head>

<frameset framespacing=&quot;0&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; rows=&quot;80,*&quot;>
  <frame name=&quot;1&quot; src=&quot;Year.cfm&quot; target=&quot;year&quot; marginwidth=&quot;10&quot; marginheight=&quot;10&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; noresize >
  <frame name=&quot;2&quot; src=&quot;details.cfm&quot; target=&quot;details&quot; marginwidth=&quot;10&quot; marginheight=&quot;10&quot; scrolling=&quot;auto&quot;>
  <noframes>
  <body>

  <p>This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them.</p>

  </body>
  </noframes>
</frameset>

</html>


This maintains the top frame but allows the bottom frame to scroll to see all content.


If you are using ColdFusion, why don't you use includes to make this mess fit on one page? Frames stink.

Noresize actually refers to the frame, not the frameset. Noresize means that you cannot use the mouse to drag the frame border to make a different width or height within the frameset.
