    Frames allow displaying multiple HTML documents in the same browser window, with each document in its own independent "frame". The <frameset> tag divides the window into rows and columns occupied by each frame defined by <frame> tags. While frames provide a way to structure complex pages, they have disadvantages like increased complexity for developers and inability to easily print the entire page. Navigation between frames is possible by linking frames using the target attribute.

    HTML Frames

    Frames
    „ With frames, you can display more than one HTML document in
    the same browser window. Each HTML document is called a
    frame, and each frame is independent of the others.

    The disadvantages of using frames are:

    „ The web developer must keep track of more HTML documents


    „ It is difficult to print the entire page
    The Frameset Tag

    „ The <frameset>
    frameset tag defines how to divide the
    window into frames

    „ Each frameset defines a set of rows or columns


    „

    „ The values of the rows/columns indicate the amount


    of screen area each row/column will occupy
    The Frame Tag

    „ The <frame> tag defines what HTML


    document to put into each frame

    <frameset cols="25%,75%">
    <f
    <frame src="frame_a.htm">
    "f ht ">
    <frame src="frame_b.htm">
    </frameset>
    Vertical frameset

    <frameset cols="25%,50%,25%">

    <frame src="frame_c.htm">

    Useful Tips

    „ If a frame has visible borders, the user can resize it byy dragging
    gg g
    the border. To prevent a user from doing this, you can add
    noresize="noresize" to the <frame> tag.
    „ Add the <noframes> tag g for browsers that do not support
    pp frames.

    Important: You cannot use the <body></body> tags together with the
    <frameset></frameset> tags!
    g

    However, if you add a <noframes> tag containing some text for


    browsers that do not support frames, you will have to
    enclose
    l the
    th text
    t t in
    i <body></body>
    b d /b d tags!
