<FRAME> — NN 2 IE 3 HTML 4
Synopsis
<FRAME>
End Tag: Forbidden
The
FRAME
element
defines properties of an individual window space that is some
fractional portion of the entire browser window. A
FRAME
element must be defined within the context
of a FRAMESET
element. It is the
FRAMESET
that defines the row and column
arrangement of a related group of frames.
A browser treats a frame as a separate browser window within the
browser application’s window. As such, each frame window can
load its own content, independent of other frames. Although no
attributes of the FRAME
element are required,
assigning a value to the NAME
attribute is highly
recommended if you have forms or links whose returned or destination
document is to be displayed in a different frame. Scripting among
multiple frames also benefits greatly from names assigned to frames
because it makes references to those frames (and their contents) more
easily understandable to someone reading the script code.
Example
<FRAMESET COLS="150,*"> <FRAME NAME="navbar" SRC="nav.html"> <FRAME NAME="main" SRC="page1.html"> </FRAMESET>
