Recommendation for the implementation of a functionality for dynamically loading content in HTML5.

Dear W3C,

In HTML5 there is no longer support for html frames. In order for web pages to be readable in future web browsers they have to be revised.

A great functionality of html frames is that it allows for loading external html content into a targeted frame by means of a simple hyperlink.

Today the same result can be achieved but is dependent on other programming languages. And this shows as a shortcoming of HTML5 for two reasons.

In the first place people writing in HTML/CSS are forced to revert to other, more complicated, programming languages to retain the functionality of their web pages. This raises the thresh-hold for the ease of use of HTML/CSS.

Secondly, when reverting to more complicated programming languages it requires a web server to make the functionality work. This is fine for online (W3) web pages. However, for offline functionality or secured intranet environments with no access to web servers, the use of programming languages other then HTML/CSS doesn't hold.

It would be a great help to the public when the World Wide Web Consortium would add a feature to HTML5 or it's successor that implements the afore mentioned functionality.

Kind regards,
