On this adress : http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/present/frames.html#h-16.1
You give an exemple of a simple frame document beginning with:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/frameset.dtd">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>A simple frameset document</TITLE>
</HEAD> etc......

In fact, when testing it "as is", with the validation service, it is just
"tentatively valid" because of character encoding missing.

To be valid, your exemple should be, I think (????):

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/frameset.dtd">
<html>
<head>
   <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
   <meta name="Author" content="dou1">
   <title>index</title>  etc.......

This exemple when tested with your validation service is simply "valid"

Anyway thanks a lot for your job and all tips you give us.
