Re: setting page length
The length of a web page? You can use CSS:
body {height: 500px;}

Re: setting page length
I use frames and I need a longer page size known when frames are configured, I define and use the following:
frameset {height:1000px} Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work. I just don't think I can create a selector and it will work. Is there any other ways I can try? Thanks,

Re: setting page length
First question - why are you using frames? I suggest you rethink in terms of a frameless layout and then use css as has already been suggested to control your page size. There are a number of settings you can use that will effectively give you a dynamic page length.

Re: setting page length
My client wants to try out frames. I'm aware that many people don't like frames. I'm a very experienced kernel programmer but lack of much
website knowledge. I don't think I know the subject enough to convince my client one way or the other. He himself is website developer of 6-7 years of experience. O.K., Are there somethings I can do for frame based webpages? Thanks

Frames are a hang over from days gone by. There is no reason or excuse that I can think of to use them these days. They are search engine unfriendly but more importantly they are accessibility unfriendly for people using assistive technology.

Re: setting page length
I'll add my thoughts on frames too, but I realize its not 100% your choice:
Frames are to the internet what an abacus is to modern math; it will work, but why when there are much better tools out there (calculator/CSS)
