Example

The header frame will not be resized using this markup:

<frameset rows="100,*" >
 <frame src="header.html" frameborder="1" noresize="noresize"/>
 <frame src="home.html" frameborder="0"/>
</frameset>

Description

By default, an individual frame in a frameset can be resized according to the user’s needs. However, should the design warrant that a given frame should remain locked down, for whatever reason, you may use the noresize attribute to enforce this.

The example HTML shows the XHTML-compliant implementation (where the attribute noresize has a matching attribute value of "noresize"). If you are using an HTML 4.01 doctype, you may express the noresize attribute as follows:

 <frame src="header.html" frameborder="1" noresize>

Value

"noresize" only
