Name
FRAMEBORDER — NN 3 IE 3 HTML 4
Synopsis
FRAMEBORDER=”borderSwitch"
Optional
Controls whether an individual frame within a frameset displays a
border. The setting is supposed to override the
FRAMEBORDER
attribute setting of the containing
FRAMESET
element. Controlling individual frame
borders appears to be a problem for most browsers in most operating
system versions. Turning off the border of one frame may have no
effect if all adjacent frames have their borders on. Feel free to
experiment with the effects of turning some borders on and some
borders off, but be sure to test the final effect on all browsers and
operating systems used by your audience. Rely more comfortably on the
FRAMEBORDER
attribute of the entire
FRAMESET
.
Example
<FRAME NAME="navbar" SRC="nav.html" FRAMEBORDER=no>
Value
On-off values for this attribute vary with the source. HTML 4.0
specifies the values of 1
(on) and
0
(off). Navigator uses yes
and
no
. Internet Explorer 4 accepts both sets of
values. For cross-browser compatibility, use the
yes/no
pairing.
Default
yes
