Master Pages or Frames?7/18/2006 10:34:00 PM

0/0

I have a popup window (it's a FAQ/Glossary type deal) that appears when a user requests a particular help topic.  I am being asked to "freeze" the header and the right side navigation menu (a variable number of "related" links) so that they are always visible.  I also need to allow for scrolling the main content window as some help topics are quite lengthy.  I suppose I also need to be able to scroll the navigation items themselves should it be a really long list of related items.

The help page is a master page, with the main content coming from a database and the related items also coming from the database, bound and displayed via a user control. 

Any ideas how to accomplish this with Master Pages?  Or would I need to use frames?  I am none to familiar with frames so hopefully the former is feasible.
Cheers!

You can set an element to have scrollbars via CSS allowing you to use fixed header and right sides as the main content scrolls up and down.

Unfortunately using overflow: scroll; doesn't acieve the desired effect.  It looks awkward with the horizontal scrollbar (which is not needed) and also requires me to set a fixed height on the container, which makes it look odd if you maximize the help window (it's resizable).  Also, I need to be able to "jump" to specific anchors on the page when it opens, depending upon what help item the user clicked, and simply adding scrollbars to the container doesn't prevent the entire page from scrolling down and hiding the header.

Guess I'll start experimenting with frames... Confused

Cheers!
