Frame properties determine the frame name, source file, margins, scrolling, and resizing for individual frames within a frameset. To view frame properties, Alt-click (Windows) or Option-click (Macintosh) a frame.

See Frames overview for more information about frames.

To see all of the following frame properties, click the expander arrow in the lower right corner of the Property inspector:

Frame determines the name of the current frame to use for hyperlink targeting and scripting references. A frame name should be a single word. Underscores (_) are allowed, but not hyphens (-), periods (.), or spaces.

Src determines the source document for the frame. Enter a file name, or click the folder to the right to browse. You can also open a file in a frame by placing the cursor in the frame and choosing File > Open in Frame.

Scroll determines if scroll bars appear when there is not enough room to display the content of the current frame. Most browsers default to Auto.

No Resize makes the current frame nonresizable and prevents users from dragging the frame borders. Frames are always resizable in the Document window, but frames with this option turned on are not resizable in a browser.

Border controls the border of the current frames. The options are Yes, No, or Default. This choice overrides border settings defined for the frameset. (See Frameset properties.) Most browsers default to Yes. To turn off a border, all adjacent frames must be set to No (or set to Default with the parent frameset set to No).

Border Color sets a border color for all borders adjacent to the current frame. This setting overrides the border color of the frameset. (See Frameset properties.)

Margin Width sets the width in pixels of the left and right margins (the space between the frame border and the content).

Margin Height sets the height in pixels of the top and bottom margins (the space between the frame borders and the content).
