Frames
With
frames, we can display more than one HTML document in the same browser window.
Each HTML document is called a frame, and each frame is independent of the
others.
Frameset Tag
• The
<frameset> tag defines how to divide the window into frames
• Each
frameset defines a set of rows or
columns
• The
values of the rows/columns indicate the amount of screen area each row/column
will occupy
Frame Tag
• The
<frame> tag defines what HTML document to put into each frame
In the example below we have a frameset with two
columns. The first column is set to 25% of the width of the browser window. The
second column is set to 75% of the width of the browser window. The HTML
document "frame_a.htm" is put into the first column, and the HTML
document "frame_b.htm" is put into the second column:
<frameset cols="25%,75%">
<frame src="frame_a.htm"> <frame
src="frame_b.htm">
</frameset>
Note:
• The
frameset column size value can also be set in pixels
(cols="200,500"), and one of the columns can be set to use the remaining
space (cols="25%,*").
• You
cannot use the <body></body> tags together with the
<frameset></frameset> tags!
The
disadvantages of using frames are:
• The web
developer must keep track of more HTML documents
• It is
difficult to print the entire page
