In this case I am not sure that there are obvious reasons not to use frames. I don't see any obvious reasons, anyway. They would allow you to have all the information in a single Window, moving through each story independently. The DHTML version is likely to be pretty simple too - two sets of stuff that you flip through (this lets you make sure you get to the right point at the end - rather than thinking you can make the pie and finish it without actually having the mince in there...) Making it as broadly accessible as possible is a bit tricky - easier for frames, but the end point is harder there cheers Chaals On Thursday, Feb 27, 2003, at 03:38 Australia/Melbourne, Jonathan Chetwynd wrote: > for the present the user must elect to open another window, it would > be preferable to have both events in one window. > > frames is a possibility, but not one I'll entertain for the obvious > reasons.
