Question

Coding in Coldfusion without using frames

In the past I have created web applications using frames. For example the upper frame would have a list of returned records from a query and the bottom frame would contain details about the record (related to a record in the top frame).

I am now trying to code using css. Is there a better way to code a web app without using frames?

    framesets and iframes can get complicated, I'd use simple Includes and if you want scroll bars - an overflow div as above.

    Frames and style sheets are not replacements for each other. For what you say you are looking to accomplish, either a frameset or an iframe seems as good a way to go as any.

    It's simple, buddy. You can use overflow tag in CSS. But, it only works for DIV tag.
