Re: NOFRAMES is the right way.

I like this approach.

  somewhere in the collection of documents to which the frameset applies).
  
  NOFRAMES is priority 1 for complex frames, priority 2 otherwise.
  
  The essence of this approach is to set a determinate upper limit on frame
  complexity, based on our assessment of what is readily navigable and
  comprehensible when frames are treated as links in a serial medium such as
  audio. The above example of a complexity definition is just an
  illustration and has not been based on any research (obviously the working
  group would need to agree upon a definition if this solution were
  adopted).
