This tip is not correct. You can resize frames by doing this:

var WDW = this.parent
WDW.FormFrames.rows="40,200,*";

Note that I have a "FrameSet" labeled FormFrames on this page.

There is an important thing to note on this issue. The page that contains the frames and the frame that has the code in it MUST be on the same server, or you will get acceess denied. It may even have to be in the same folder, I don't know for sure. I guess this is to protect against people trying to get past the frames put in on some free web space providers like namezero.com.

This is incorrect. A frameset can be resized in a variety of ways by clicking a button. Visit this link for details on one way:

http://cross-browser.com/toys/frame_resize.html

I successfully use the techniques tought in this link to control a 6 frame frameset (3 rows and 2 columns) and hide the top two frames or the left three frames (which is where you usually put navigation and contents).

Works great!
