  • Hi All,

    main.html

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>a simple frameset document</title>
    </head>
    <frameset cols="20%, 80%">
    <frame src="frame1.html">
    <frame src="frame2.html">
    </frameset>
    <body style="height: 1000px; width: 1000px">
    </body>
    </html>

    Frame1.html

    <html>
    <head></head>
    <body>
    <div><h1>hello world</h1></div>
    <h2>browsers</h1>

  • I think webkit cannot find height of the html because there is two htmls in a frame
