And if the viewport is any narrower than about 800px, portions of the site
are hidden with no scrollbars even. Very poor design.

First, a better option is to not use a fixed width. Fixed width designs
are invariably too wide for some (invokes horizontal scrollbars, or as we
see above, worse) and too narrow for others (having perhaps a quarter of
viewport space unused, split up on either side of the content). Using a
fluid design eliminates this, allowing the design to flex for all users.
Second, if you really must use a fixed width, use the background-image
property on body to set a background, then set the width to the nested div
containing content. More complicated things can be done too, if you're
willing to be tricky about it.

body {
background-image: url(bg.jpg);
background-position: center top;
background-repeat: np-repeat;
}
seems to work good. Can I ask what other complicated things you are refering
to? I'm willing to play around

I tried to setup a frameset which consists of 4 different subframes.
Each of these subframes should fetch a different web page from the internet and display it completely (!).
BUT: the vertical size should be undefined. Depending on the retrieved (lets say 2nd) webpage the frame should take as much space
as it needs to display the whole sub web page without vertical scrollbar.
If I implement it like below a vertical scrollbar for each of...

Hello NG,
I'm looking for an solution to find out the real vertical viewport -
without the height of horizontal scrollbars.
I have two frames side by side. The left one declared 'scrolling="no"'
and the right one 'scrolling="auto"'. For the left frame it is important
to know if the right frame has a horizontal scrollbar and how sick it
is. So I have tried to compare the viewport of both frames.

Any of your advice would be much appreciated
