actually, the reason i'm trying to get rid of frames is that a website
using them isn't indexed by search engines. as soon as i'm able to get
a decent layout/setup without them, i'd like to re-design my company's
website.

scrolling the whole page and "loosing" the menus/navbar on the top is
annoying, imho, and i was trying to "fix" them in a position without
using frames. i mean: a "technical" website, designed mainly for
people interested in that product and that need to use it as an online
catalog and/or info/support source, is similar to an application you
would install on your pc and we all have been using applications with
"fixed" menus and toolbars for almost 20 years; then, having fixed
items in a webpage becomes very user-friendly, both imho and in my
users' first impressions.

i think i'll have to wait another couple of years for fixed div's to
be implemented correctly in i.e., too, and go on using frames for
another while :\

thank you again.
