The best way would be to use server side language, but you can always just use code. But you are also trying to rely on screen resolution.

Well we will need to know what the two pages are, but I really suggest you stay completely away from frames. They are difficult (especially for newbies) to code and they are finally being deprecated.
You will have to keep in mind that a web page is developed, not designed. You can design things in Flash but that is a completely different animal.
I really don't understand with in a window, with in a box at all. Do you have an example of this somewhere on a web page that you are wanting to imitate?

http://www.nytimes.com/ at that site there is a box set called Inside NYTimes.com, see how it makes it so you can press the buttons and it will go through the items, but i only want 2 pages visible at one time and text only i don't need the pics, |

The NY Times I think I get, but it is just a dynamic scroller with some images - not like a page book.
And with the other one, it is just going to another page. Simply, you can use an iframe for that if needed to embed that into an HTML page.
| Code: |
<iframe name="book" src="book.html">
Your browser does not support inline frames or is currently configured not to display inline frames.
</iframe> |

I got something that will work, thank you. |
