Greetings List:

We are working on a design that requires the use of three frames.

The first frame called "menu" is intended to be flush (bleed) right to the 
left side of the screen.
The second frame called "header" is intended to be flush (bleed) to the top 
of the screen.
And lastly, the third frame called "body" would house the page specific 
content being delivered.

As you'll see if you visit, www.creativegenius.ca/test/index.htm the 
problem we seem to be having relates either to the implementation of the 
frames (we are not BIG believers in frames based layouts) or to our  image 
splicing or a combination of the two.

If you view the intended design in Netscape, the problem we are 
experiencing appears to be related to  getting the 2 images lined up 
"exactly".  If you view the same page code with MS Explorer there is a 
distinct gap between the two images, within the frames.  As you can likely 
surmise, our goal is to have the  graphic presented as a solid piece with 
no visible seam.

Any frames or image spicing guru's care to steer us in the right direction, 
I'm beginning to lose a bit of hair and if you know me, although it's long, 
I can't afford to lose any more:)

Big time thanks to all who provide feedback.
