the external style sheet file, so setting these options in the Properties Inspector is not necessary. (If you do set these properties in the Properties


Inspector, the style sheet settings take precedence.)           Adjusting Frameset Attributes Framesets, like frames, also have properties you can customize. Properties such as borders, border widths, border colors, row heights, and column widths can all be customized from the frameset-based Properties Inspector. Here's a complete list of the frameset properties in the frameset-based Properties Inspector: Borders Border width Border color Row height Column width To access the frameset-based Properties Inspector, select the frameset from either the Frames panel or the Tag Selector. To select the frameset from the Frames panel, simply click the outer border of the frame in the panel. For instance, I'll select the Fixed Top frameset by clicking the outer border of the frame, shown by the cursor placement in Figure 8.10. Figure 8.10. Select the frameset by clicking the outer frame border in the Frames panel.   If you do it right, the Properties Inspector becomes a frameset-based Properties Inspector. Alternatively, you can select the frameset by selecting a frame in the Frames panel; the Tag Selector shows the hierarchy of tags including the <frameset> tag. Simply choose the <frameset> tag from the Tag Selector, as shown in Figure 8.11, to select the frameset and have the Properties Inspector change to a frameset-based Properties Inspector. Figure 8.11. Select the <frameset> tag from the Tag Selector to select the frameset. [View full size image]   Either method you choose enables the frameset-based Properties Inspector for the particular frameset. Remember that the Fixed Top, Nested Left frameset is really a frameset within a frameset (it's really four frames split into two framesets). What this means is that you'll have to access and modify two framesets instead of one. After you've selected the frameset, the properties exposed by the frameset-based Properties Inspector are visible. These properties are also highlighted by the callouts in Figure 8.12. Each of these properties is discussed in the following sections. Figure 8.12. Add the header.gif image to the Header frame.

Represented by the Borders menu, the Border Width text box, and the Border color picker, you can set these properties to control how the frameset treats borders. Because the frameset is technically
