Following Scott's comments below... An alternative is pretty simple to imagine. When I write a frame-based website, I try to ensure that it can be navigated completely and logically by a noframes browser. Mostly this involves putting the required links into the main frame, which can then be used as the start page on its own. A contents frame can also be used in this way, so long as each page provides a link back to it. does this work for people? My interest is to provide, where possible, systems which work with what people already have, rather than locking them into a constant hardware/software upgrade cycle - I fell out of that cycle several years ago for economic reasons. Without work-based access I probably could not afford anything more than Lynx-speed connection.
