I Steps: 1. Go to http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/bookmgr_OS390/libraryserver/zosv1r9/ 2. move cursor to try to resize left frame area (in order to see full book names) II Issue: cannot resize, unable to grab frame for resize III Conclusion: The document is actually out of spec. See http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/present/frames.html#h-16.2.2 The problem we are seeing is that they are using an attribute resize="yes". That attribute is not in the spec. The spec allows for noresize which they use in two different ways. Here is the source: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML//EN"> <html><head> <title>testcase</title> </head> <frameset id="main" name="main" rows="50px,50px, *" frameborder="0" framespacing="0" border="0" spacing="0"> <frame name="mastheadFrame" title="banner" src="testcase_files/banner.htm" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0" noresize="0" scrolling="no"> <frame name="searchFrame" src="testcase_files/search.htm" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0" noresize="noresize" scrolling="no"> <frameset id="center" name="center" cols="300,*" framespacing="4" border="7" frameborder="1" style="" noresize=""> <frameset id="left" name="left" rows="30, *, 25" frameborder="0" framespacing="0" border="0" spacing="0" class="FRAMESTYLE1"> <frame name="navbarFrame" src="testcase_files/navbar.htm" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0" class="FRAMESTYLE2" resize="yes" scrolling="no"> <frame name="navigationFrame" src="testcase_files/tabbedPanes.htm" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0" resize="yes" scrolling="no"> <frame name="tabFrame" src="testcase_files/tabs.htm" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0" resize="yes" scrolling="no"> </frameset> <frameset id="right" name="right" rows="30, *" frameborder="0" framespacing="0" border="0" spacing="0" class="FRAMESTYLE1"> </frameset> </html> However, the resize attribute should be ignored and the default behavior for a frame should be that it can be resized.

As I've mentioned before, it is insane to claim that what you've attached is a useful reduction. It includes FIFTY-FIVE FILES. I'm almost certain that the bug could be demonstrated with fewer than five files.

I think, you can confirm in for example in chromium 12.0.742.100 (88853) Ubuntu 11.04 at phppgadmin demo page: http://phppgadmin.sourceforge.net/doku.php?id=demo Left frameset could not be resized like in firefox or ie. There are thinking its webkit bug http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=6402
