I chose to use iframes as I want links in one section to change content of others and whilst I'm sure there are better ways to do this the only way my limited knowledge covers is to have links targeting iframes, and I guessed it was quicker and easier to get advice on layout rather than functionality.

Thanks Wickham, that's great! Exactly what I wanted.

Hi, I'm fairly new to web design and just tinkering with little projects to amuse myself at the moment so I apologise if this is a really dumb question... I am trying to make my page consist of three iframes. Iframes 1 and 3 positioned to the far left and far right of the screen respectively, both filling the screen vertically and of a specific width (Using 200px as a trial but may adjust later) Iframe 2 also filling the screen vertically and having a dynamic width to fill the gap between 1 and 3. With the result that all three between them fill the screen both vertically and horizontally. Can anyone either let me know if this really is as simple as I had hoped before I started or if I have set my sights too high for an early project, and if so how I would go about doing it? Have spent ages using percentage widths on all three and a hundred percent height and using position:absolut to set margins to zero to move things to edges, but so far have just ended up with loads of pages called test1.htm / test2.htm... etc. etc. and nothing that looks right! Thanks for any help.
