Save as Web Page with frames

[cldavi01]

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel

I have recently moved from PC to Mac.
I have a word document created on a PC which includes a table of contents. On the PC I was able to create a "frames" version, with the section headers as links down the left hand side of the page. On the PC I was able to save both the no-frames and frames versions as Web pages. On the Mac I can read the no-frames word version and it can successfully be saved as a web page. However, MacWord doesn't seem to like the frames version. When I try to open it I get the message "This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them." Is there any way I can use MacWord to create a web document with frames the same way I did on the PC ?

Sorry: Word 2008 does not support Frames.

If you know how, you can code them yourself, by putting in the code
manually.

1) Save your document as a Web Page.

2) Insert a Table of Contents

3) Copy the Tale of Contents, and paste it into a blank document.

4) Save that as a web page too.

5) Now, create a third web page with just the frames in it. Set the
content of the frames to be the first two documents.

I would pinch a frameset from Word 2003 and simply change the URLs for the
documents: save you having to think

Cheers

What Browser are you using John?

all Mozilla Browsers (gecko based) can use what its called iFrames.

Is this the same as what your talking about?

If it's "fixed", don't "break it"!

Hi Phillip:

No, I was talking about "Frames", as opposed to iFrames.

However, the mechanism is exactly the same. You just have to code a few
more parameters to make an iFrame. Ummm... I think they were originally a
Microsoft IE "enhancement" that spread. You know: those "non-standard HTML
entities" that you keep railing about?

Their use has been somewhat deprecated of late, due to the security hazards
they can present to the unwary (the content of the iFrame may not be coming
from the same website...)

Cheers

They can render Frames as well Use to on our Association websites some
things were put in Frames.

Biggest thing some people use iFrames for is inserting sound consoles to
play music so that you can turn the music off or own or adjust the volume.
