frame size erratta in netscape.

Hi,

I'm doing my yearly revamp of my personal pages. The ones that I never
update again until I revamp them a year later that is....

Anyway, Stage one was a menu, left frame.

Take a look at:

In ie 5.01, it worked fine with a frame the size of 156 pixels, which is
good, because that's the width that i set the menu.html to. Then I tried
looking at it in netscape 4.08, and the menu.html disappeared off under the
frame.

Now before you say it's because I've got a border on the page, it isn't.
Comparing the two browsers side by side (on top of each other really),
shows that netscape makes a smaller actual frame, using the same pixel
size. So:

1. Can anyone replicate this effect - netscape actually producing a smaller
frame than ie.

2. Can anyone tell me which other browsers do this - netscape 3, netscape
2? I don't have either on my system.

3. Aargh, am I going to have to use a sniffer to make different frame
sizes??? :P

TIA,

Kyle
