Hi, I am some accessibility advice to an organisation designing a Website aimed at people with learning difficulties and those supporting people with learning difficulties. The designers want to build the site based on using Frames for navigation - quoting the W3c guidelines saying that they can be made accessible. For all the reasons I have listed on my site (see http://www.mcu.org.uk) I don't think this is a good idea - but I am keen to hear what people on this list think of frames and accessibility. If your were building a Website from scratch, that had to be accessible - would you use frames? If not why not?
