Name

FRAMESPACING — NN n/a IE 3 HTML n/a

Synopsis

FRAMESPACING=”pixelLength"

Optional

The Internet Explorer FRAMESPACING attribute is an older version of the BORDER attribute. The older attribute is supported in IE 4 for backward compatibility. The behavior of FRAMESPACING attribute is more uniform across operating system versions of IE 4: a setting of 10 pixels generates a border between frames that is essentially identical in both Windows and Mac versions. For an IE-only deployment, the FRAMESPACING attribute is a more accurate way to create borders that look the same across operating system versions.

Example

<FRAMESET COLS="25%,50%,25%" FRAMESPACING="7">...</FRAMESET>

Value

A positive integer. Unlike the BORDER attribute, however, a setting of zero does not remove the border. Use the FRAMEBORDER attribute to hide borders entirely.

Default

2
