Well i noticed that my webpage has really ugly frames. Is there a way to change the look of them or remove them completely? Favorite Quotes:Gandalf: You shall not pass!|Smeagol: We don''t need you!|Sloth: Hey you guys!|

hrm, without seeing your page, I cant give you a definate answer, but here are some suggestions:

-Dont use frames
-Turn off the borders (border=0, frameborder=0)

I believe that frames are considered poor practice now and shouldn''t be used.
Use DHTML div and CSS.You can use dhtml to do some really cool stuff.

You can try something like this:

FRAMESET ROWS="88, *, 38" FRAMEBORDER=0 FRAMESPACING=0
FRAME NAME="HEADER" SRC="...." NORESIZE SCROLLING=NO
FRAME NAME="BODY" SRC="..." NORESIZE
FRAME NAME="FOOTER" SRC="..." NORESIZE SCROLLING=NO
/FRAMESET

Anyway, keep in mind that it's not a good idea to use frames for a variety of reasons. e.g.

- Search engines doesn't like them.
- You reduce the visible area in the screen
etc

Also, disability programs tend to dislike frames. You can normally find a way to not use them, unless perhaps you have a HUGE menu file for some reason that you dont want to reload (but that would just be bad design anyways).
