I think it would be cool to create my browser homepage with 2 or 4 urls viewable.

Is it possible to do this with frames or iframes? Is there a way to create frames where the url is resized (shrunk-to-fit) within the frame? Thanks.

One of my forum moderators told me that he has created a custom home page with his favorite links to it (hosted on his hard drive, I presume). That seems pretty doable.

websites will in many cases shrink or expand to fit the browser window. However, they won't scale like images and usually have a minimum resolution "requirement". Placing say 4 websites on one page by using frames or iframes will most likely not work out nicely.

One option would be to take screendumps of your favorite sites and place those on a page stored on your hard drive as links to the real sites. All you then have to do is set the browser's homepage (Tools > Internet Options) to the correct page.

Dont forget with most recent Windows flavours you can set your desktop up to be a webpage too :)

Thanks guys. Basically what I want is not doable, but I think I'll set up a favorite links page. It's always worth checking since there is always new stuff out there. Tough to keep up.

taropatch:

Will this do what you want maybe? It is four pages, just change the URL values to what you want to load.

<FRAME NAME='frameA' SRC='http://www.URL1.com'>
<FRAME NAME='frameB' SRC='http://www.URL2.com'>
</FRAMESET><FRAMESET COLS=50%,50%>
<FRAME NAME='frameC' SRC='http://www.URL3.com'>
<FRAME NAME='frameD' SRC='http://www.URL4.com'>
</FRAMESET></FRAMESET>


Cheers,
