focus on frame

Feb 4th, 2009

Hi There, I have a page containing the following code

 Help with Code Tags 
 html Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
<frameset rows="75,*">
  <frame src="menu.php" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" />
  <frame src="home.php" id="main" />
  <noframes><body>Your browser does not support frames.  
  You can view the  <a href="/home.php">Home Page</a>.</body>
    </noframes>
    </frameset>
<frameset rows="75,*">
  <frame src="menu.php" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" />
  <frame src="home.php" id="main" />
  <noframes><body>Your browser does not support frames.  
  You can view the  <a href="/home.php">Home Page</a>.</body>
    </noframes>
    </frameset>

NOTE: there is nothing else on the page except for <head> info.
I would like to focus on the frame "main" so that when a user presses, say the down arrow, it will scroll down like normal.

How should this be done?

You help would be appreciated.

If you, use a css positioned menu,
you dont have to have ugly framesets
the page will scroll,
index better
and will work in browsers with javascript disabled

Failure is not an option It's included free, you don't have to do anything to get it
If at first you dont succeed, join the club
Of course its always in the last place you look, you dont keep looking after you find it
