How to Set HTML Frameset Pixels
When dividing up a screen using frames in your HTML files, you may declare frame heights and widths using percentages, pixels, relative sizes or a combination of these. When using pixels to define sizes, use a relative size for at least one of your frames because you don't know what screen resolutions visitors to your website use -- and certainly not everybody uses the same one. This way, it ensures that the frames with a relative size always take up the remainder of the screen that you don't reserve for absolute pixel values.
Instructions

-
1
Open the frameset document and insert the cursor in the "<frameset>" element in the file.
-
2
Change the values of the "rows" or "cols" attribute, depending on which you use, to redefine the parameters of the frames. For example, type the following: <FRAMESET cols="150px, *">. This defines a page with two frame columns. The left frame is 150 pixels wide and the right frame's width uses a relative size that takes up the rest of the screen, regardless what resolution the visitor uses on his computer.
