Anyone else getting slight problems with resizing nested frames in Dreamweaver...

Parent frame is sized to 100% width

Two nested frames Left and Right, Left is sized to 33% but when displayed still appears to grab 50% of the real estate available???

Thanks in advance degsy:D

Can you post the Frameset code that DW produces?

Sorry degsy, replaced the code with a table for various reasons. All in working order now .... cheers.

Just had to hack the DW code to exclude default margins and away it went, still has a slightly irritating space on the right for a scroll bar l guess, here's the code as it stands. Not sure if you can get rid of the space on the right....

Had to add in the margin stuff to the body.

Difference is in the Table tag
<table width="100%" height="100%" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" id="MainTable">
p.s. Remember to put attribute values in quotes.
