Frame issues

I'm having problems with frames in dreamweaver CS4. I am using 3 frames top middle and bottom. the top is working fine when published but don't work at all when rendered in live view. For the mid and the bottom frames they don't show聽 all the images. For the bottom the text shows, but not the background image. For the middle the background and the images in the cell background don't show, but the nav menu shows the images and the rollovers fine. I think it has something to do with CSS, but I'm really not sure. I have deleted the frames and tried to start a new, but no luck. It's something to do with the features, I'm gathering. Because I tried to recreate the frames again and still the same issue re-occur. Has anyone encountered this issue before, and how you聽 remedied the solution. All ideas welcomed! Thanks to all in advance.

Frame issues

You probably aren't getting any answers because not many people use frames these days.聽 Geez, the very first website I did used frames (around 1998) and haven't created one since.

Is there a real need to have the site using frames?聽 There are problems with framed sites in case you didn't know:

Sorry I couldl be of further help, don't know the ins and outs of frames, but it does sound like a pathing issue if some of the images are not showing up.

Maybe this site with an old tutorial may help:

Frame issues

Hi, Nadia-P

Thanks for the response

I've read that,and see why now. I wanted to use frames on this site

http://www.mylottowizard.com/ to accommodate with other website that

are revenant. My website (http://www.mylottowizard.com/) will cater

to lottery play from all over the world. It doesn't show now put the

new site will. I want to give the players a feel that they're still

on my site when they check the previous drawn numbers from a link to

one of those states or country with the lotteries. After doing some

reading , it's the coding and the path. The
