Site Example Suggestion

On your page http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/present/frames.html#adef-target 

it seems to me that the page mentioned (see below) as "Then, in init_dynamic.html ..." is not a great example. It would be more logical to have the targeted links in "init_fixed.html" or to have a simple "Next" link at the bottom of each dynamic page. As given, clicking on "slide 2." or"slide 3." are alternative actions, not sequential as is suggested by this structure.

<<This example illustrates how targets allow the dynamic modification of a frame's contents. First we define a frameset in the document frameset.html, shown here:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/frameset.dtd">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>A frameset document</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<FRAMESET rows="50%,50%">
   <FRAME name="fixed" src="init_fixed.html">
   <FRAME name="dynamic" src="init_dynamic.html">
</FRAMESET>
</HTML>

Then, in init_dynamic.html, we link to the frame named "dynamic".

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>A document with anchors with specific targets</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
...beginning of the document...
<P>Now you may advance to 
    <A href="slide2.html" target="dynamic">slide 2.</A>
...more document...
<P>You're doing great. Now on to
    <A href="slide3.html" target="dynamic">slide 3.</A>
</BODY>
</HTML>
>>
