A few weeks ago, I posted some ideas I had regarding extending URLs for framesets so that a full URL could reflect documents loaded in a frameset after the initial frameset. Today, independently, I came across a scripted example of this idea from Netscape's DevEdge documentation. [1] Their example uses JavaScript to recognize a name property and value in the URL. They use a question mark followed by the frame name and an equals sign, followed by the full URL to be loaded in the named frame. Here's a live example: http://developer.netscape.com/library/examples/javascript/frames/index.html ?d=http://home.netscape.com (sorry about the long URL) While I think the script is a clever idea, I'd like to see a W3C proposal to make this officially a part of URL syntax so that each frameset does not have to use this script.
