<< In other words, frames are a presentational hint, for particular media. Therefore, stylesheets should be used for making frames. >> While I cannot stand most framed pages, I understand why the functionality is there. For example, Hotmail.com allows you to read mail, and if the mail has a link to another page, choosing the link just modifies the current page. The Hotmail.com navigation bar at the top stays the same, allowing you to return quickly to the original mail message if you surfed your way through to several pages. This is not something that can be accomplished through CSS positioning.
