Hey all,

I'm new to this forum so I hope this question is appropriate.

I'm developing a simple HTML site which uses frames, and I've noticed that when a page loads within a frame when it's viewed in Safari, the whole frame blanks out first creating a flickering effect. This doesn't happen in IE, and I wondering if anyone might know how to resolve this issue.

Thanks for your help!

i'd suggest avoiding frames entirely if you can. server side scripting languages like php make it easy to include everything you would in a frame in one line of code. even if you don't have that option, something like html overlays (http://disruptive-innovations.com/zoo/20040830/HTMLoverlays.html) should keep your code clean and compliant, as well as make sure that it's much easier to update and maintain.
