Greetings Does anyone have any experience or comments about the use of HTML frames in a "cloaking" application? To explain: Various DNS (Domain Name Service) providers and domain registrars offer a "Web Forward" service allowing the use of free Web hosting, such as Yahoo's Geocities, to have a "real" URI. Examples: Someone visiting www.foo.bar may actually be going to www.geocities.foo/bar One means of doing this is to use frames to "cloak" the real URI. This uses a frameset, which provides the required title, with a single full-screen frame, which provides the content. Lynx has no problems with frames, although I have yet to test this properly, but how would it affect screen readers?
