Note: To make the contents of the frame change when visitors click links on a page in another frame, you make this frame
the target for each link. (See “About target frames for linked pages” on page 267.)

To set scrolling bars for a frame
❖ In the Frame tab of the Frame Inspector, choose Yes, No, or Auto from the Scrolling menu to show or hide scrolling
bars. Auto hides the scrolling bars if they aren’t needed and shows them if the content is too large for the frame.
To set the size of a frame
❖ In the Frame tab of the Frame Inspector, do any of the following:
• If you want the frame to resize automatically when the browser window is resized, choose Scale from the Width
or Height menu.
Note: At least one frame in the frame set must be resizeable.
• If you don’t want the frame to be resizeable, choose Pixel from the Width or Height menu, and enter the desired
size in pixels. For example, use this technique if the frame will display a small image of known dimensions.
Note: If you specify an absolute size in pixels for one frame, you must set at least one more frame of the same orientation
to Scale, or the frame set scales all frames in that direction.
• If you want the frame to have a fixed ratio relative to the overall height or width of the frame set, choose Percent
from the Width or Height menu. Then enter a value in the Width or Height text box to preset a percentage. For
frames with horizontal orientation, this attribute controls the relative height. For frames with vertical orientation,
it controls the relative width.
Note: You can prevent users from dragging frame borders to resize the frame dimensions by deselecting Resize Frame in
the Frame tab of the Frame Inspector.
To resize a frame by dragging
❖ Do one of the following:
• Click inside the frame to select it, and drag its vertical or horizontal border to resize the height or width.
• In the Frame tab of the Frame Inspector, choose Pixel or Percent from the Width or Height menu, and drag the
frame border to the desired size.
To set the size of a frame border
❖ Select the vertical or horizontal border. In the Frame Set tab of the Frame Set Inspector, select BorderSize and enter
a value in pixels in the text box.
About target frames for linked pages
When you set up navigation links to pages that are displayed in a frame set, you must specify each target frame as
well as the page’s URL.
