Richard Mahoney
is that you haven't included the stylesheet in the HTML pages that make up
the frames...

I have found the problem was the inclusion of the following DOCTYPE
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
Needless to say, as an IE extension, this is not supported under the W3C
standard.

Yeah, I had similar problems on my site.
By changing it to Transitional, you can overcome most glitches because the
Strict one is very unforgiving.
