I want to create a fixed Index on the right of every page,but i dont know how, i'm new at this (a week) and dont know wether i have to do a table or something else.

I want the rest of the text to scroll and the index to stay fixed.

Help Please!!!

erm..you'll be needing frames then. Or a very clever piece of script..I don't think you could do it with a table, but I'm fairly new at this too.

Erm....I'm not going to attempt to explain how to do frames, just go here (http://junior.apk.net/~jbarta/version.html) and d/load the tutorials...they explain it very well.

frames are alright but if u need just one box use an "iframe"
much simpler code

Go here (http://www.teamlsd.freeserve.co.uk/clan/index.htm) for an example.

Basically i have the index in the top left and using tables to move the iframe in another cell u have what u describe.
the code used is...

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Arial, Helvetica">quote:</font><HR>
&lt;iframe name="frame" src="filename.htm" width="635" height="475" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"&gt;
&lt;/iframe&gt;
<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

name is used so that when u click on a link the pages load in the right place, eg.
&lt;a href="file2.htm" target="frame"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; would load the file2.htm in the frame.

src="filename ... src is "source" for where the file is located.

width, height (i wont insult u by describing these http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/teeth.gif)

frameborder=0 is whether the iframe boarders should be seen or not.

scrolling=0 allows no scrollers, although on my site i have used javascript to create my own ones http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/smile.gif

Eek... don't use an Iframe... Netscape hates them. Sounds like you want just plain and basic frames, compatible with all browsers (except very ancient ones).
