Hi all!

Can anyone please explain this...
I have a website with certain content. There is a button in it with a link to another. This other website is actually in a sub-domain of the first one.
The trouble is, the meta tags don't seem to work in the sub-domain site. The content is totally different from the main domain site(does that make a difference?). Now I am afraid when Google crawls the net, the subdomain page will not make it to their index.
When I view the page in Dreamwaver it seems OK. Even if I open it with either IE6 or Firefox, but only from a folder (off line). Once I upload the page and view it online, Firefox says "This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them" and the tags aren't visible at all" (that's in the 'view-source' window), and IE6 just like Firefox doesn't display the page description on top of the explorer window.
The site in question is: www.frofi.co.uk and the link "ENTERTAINMENT" takes you to the subdomain page.
These are my first two attempts on a web site so don't laugh.

Is there any way I can make it work and it stays in frames? I don't know any other way of making all the little chunks of picture to stay in their required place. I tried with CSS but I'am just a beginner.

Nope, that's the way frames work.

Ok, here is what you are doing wrong -

You need to add the title and meta tags into the index page of your subdomain.

Currently your tags exist only in you sub directory.

That should solve your problem.

Feel free to tag me for more help.

Yes, that much I've figured. Trouble is I dont know why it is in sub directory. I created a sub domain and the mesage from my webhost said that it will exist as a folder within my existing domain folder. I created it there and that was it. The page you are looking at when you go there IS the index page. Should I contact my webhost about it?
Thank you for your help.
