I agree to Brad's response.

Ajax is no replacement for using frames. Doing so would be a way of leaving 
intrinsic browser features aside just to rebuild them with substantial 
manual effort, affecting three distinct channels: HTML, CSS and JavaScript. 
This effort can easily be left aside if using frames.

Frames are also fully accessible to disabled users, in contrast to your 
assertion.

I don't believe that using server-side script to reload a whole page again 
and again would be a serious alternative to the bandwidth-saving use of 
frames.

I'm very much looking forward to a further constructive discussion on my 
suggestion.

Cheers,
Axel Dahmen
