I have a page which I have created two frames in. With SCROLLING=AUTO when the page is two small, scroll bars come up for each frame. I would like to make it so there is one scroll bar on the right side, and both frames react to this single scroll bar. Is this possible? Can it be done with HTML, Java, or JavaScript? Help!!

I don't think it is possible.. I've seen the question asked before though so I'll try and see if someone ever found a way.. if so I'll post it for ya..

Hi,
I'm with Kool I don't think it is possible, as each frame represents a separate page I just don't think you can controls 2 pages worth of content with 1 scroll bar..

Hi folks,
If you want both frames to move as one, why frame them seperately? Perhaps laying out a table within a framed page would give you the effect you're looking for.
Just a thought...
Good Luck,
Jim

gzazjim has a good point but you will need to edit each page separately if you want to make a change in just the one part that's the same on every page. FrontPage has a "shared borders" function that does exactly what you need. Not everyone has FrontPage but if someone can find how to use this without FrontPage, it would help you.

When you use frames you need to add another file and the importent thing in frames it that each one will act seperatly so why to use frames if you need them to work together use simple table which seperate her to two <td> and one <tr> make them width=100% or how much you need and in each <td> put the file contents it will work for you if you have a problem send my e-mail and your file and i will write it for you
Tables will not work for what I am doing, I am using buttons that line up exactly with the background. Even if you set an absolute width for the <TD> tag or the <TABLE> tag, the images move down slightly when sizing the window too slim. With frames it works perfectly, but I don't want a scrollbar on the left frame screwing up my page. I know there is a way to do it, I just have to find it. Maybe I'll try msft frontpage.
Yes deltsig... it's possible and sometimes necessary to have two frames scroll at once. Sometimes tables are not the answer.
If you're trying to create two frames and make them scroll together (for instance in the case of a page with a changing menu bar at the top or footer at the bottom that must appear as part of the page), you have to wrap them in another frameset.
If I understand what you're asking, you want the page to look like one page that is capable of scrolling, but the page is actually composed of two frames.
Try this... The first frame is a dummy (required), the second scrolling frame contains your other nonscrolling frameset containing the nonscrolling set of frames. Don't forget the cache controls in the head.
