Why not frames?


every time subject of frams comes up, superhtml geeks "not idea!"

 

why?

 

i'm not disagreeing or trying argumentive have never actuually had explanation of why frames discouraged.

 

a few years sioux site, www.siouxme.com fraed based. 3 frames, logo across top, narrow vertical navigation  fraame on left , frame main window on reat of screen. mid nineties. best of knowledge, no 1 ever had issue them, did have noframes set of pages well.

 

i took site off line couple of years , when decided put online made lot of changes including using imagemap instead of framesets.

 

on vittles site have setup clicks on button , opens smaller widow picture, nutritional values, , pack weight of meal. first thought use frameset accomplish this, after observing lot of people who's opinions respect discourage using frames, did differently.

 

but.... curious bird nature , itching know problems using frames.

 

thanks,

hawk

ever tried bookmark or print page on framed site?  unless you're experienced web geek, it's darned near impossible correctly 100% of time.  when people can't simplest things on site, you've lost them forever.  said, there rare exceptions when frames ok.  not entire site.
