Works for me but not for Windows or Mac..

I'm not a windows or mac user. So I'm not certain what the deal is with frames not loading properly for them when it works fine for me.. I have FireFox, Mozilla, Konqueror, and Epiphany and all display the frames not all perfectly, but with little variation. So here's the code..

<html>
<head>
<title>Set 38</title>
<head>
<frameset rows="225, *" frameboder="no" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="top.html" noresize>
<frame src="main.html" name="home">
</frameset>
</html>

There's an alternate of the code which also doesn't work.

<html>
<head>
<title>Set 38</title>
<head>
<frameset rows="225, *" frameboder="no" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="top.html" noresize>
<frame src="main.html" name="home" scrolling="auto" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0">
</frameset>
</html>

There have been several options in between the second shown (which was the original) and the first shown (which was the end result) and of the 47 windows and mac users that I know not a single solitary one of them ever got more than a white page with a bar in the middle for any incarnation.

Additional Question:
Would having mouse over buttons in the 'top.html' destroy the ability of the frames to work?

You haven't closed the head and you are missing your body tags

Even with the head tag closed the first bit of code doesn't work.
Closing head and adding body tags to the second set did not make it work either. I've been beating on this for 12 hours now and I've rebuilt the code at least 20 times. Spell checked it, tag verified everything.. still no working..

This is the code I'm using at this point.

<html>
<head>
<title>Set 38</title>
</head>
<frameset rows="225, *" frameborder="no" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="top.html" noresize>
<frame src="main.html" name="home" scrolling="auto" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0">
</frameset>
</html>
