To use a MasterBorder to define your frameset:

• Choose the MasterBorder that will define your frameset.
• If you are starting a new blank site and want all pages to share the same frameset, simply modify the Default MasterBorder. If you want your site to present multiple framesets, create a new MasterBorder for each frameset.
• Convert a MasterBorder margin to an AutoFrame by clicking an appropriate button on the MasterBorders tab of the Properties palette.
• NetObjects Fusion creates the frame you specified and highlights it with an orange border. It makes a second frame to include the rest of the page: the Layout area and any MasterBorder area you have not converted to an AutoFrame. This second frame is the Layout frame, sometimes called the main or body frame.
• Convert other MasterBorder margins to AutoFrames if you like.
• Use margin settings to specify the width of your frames.
• If you selected the Auto-resize Margins (Windows) or Drag and Drop Layout Margins (Macintosh) option in the Page tab of the Preferences dialog, you can drag the margin borders to size the AutoFrame.
• Place your content in each frame.
• You can do this more efficiently for an AutoFrame than for a scripted frame because you do not have to create a separate content page. Just place the elements in the applicable frame in the MasterBorder.
• Preview your site.
• NetObjects Fusion creates the HTML files for your frames, including the frameset file and frame content files. Look in your /Preview and /Preview/html folders. You'll see files with names like Default_index.html. NetObjects Fusion gives the frameset file the name of the page, such as index.html. The next section describes how NetObjects Fusion names your frames and the HTML files that contain their content.
