Hi

If you want Content Frame in scroll bar use div tag.

ok, Everyone hates frames in .Net. I get this. I
understand that user controls should be used to handle thesame functionality but I have a few questions. Below is acrude outline of a page.

-------------
Header Frame
-------------
Content Frame
-------------
Footer Frame
-------------

I need the header to always be at the top and the footer
always at the bottom, in other words always visible.

The header and footer are dynamic in that they have
different buttons show up depending on the content frame
(I think we worked out how to make this happen).

The issue is that the content frame needs to scroll in
some case and not in others.

Is the common practice to then create a user control for
the content frame?

If this is the case I have about 100 pages to create so inessence I create 100 user controls as well. Is this right?
Can I just have one aspx page and dynamically change the
content control?

Last question, I promise. We use form based security froma table I assume I could deny access to the contol based
on checking the tbale (simulating not loadin the page).

Sorry for all the questions but this is quite new. Thanksin advnace for any advice and input.
