Limitations of Unframing

---

Customer and Partner applications can also be unframed. Siebel eBusiness applications require frames and cannot be unframed.

Before choosing to unframe your application, consider the following limitations to using unframed applications with applications.

HTML Frames allow the user to view the Customer and Partner global navigation links and other information while they are in an application. This allows them to exit or cancel the session by navigating to another view. When the Customer and Partner application is unframed, an application occupies the entire browser window when launched. This makes the Global Navigation Links inaccessible.
In an unframed application, all UI elements exist in the same window. Therefore, the contents list may scroll off the page as a user scrolls down. This is a limitation of the unframed HTML environment and a factor in choosing to frame applications.

If you decide to implement your Customer and Partner application without HTML frames, use the following procedure to unframe your application. The following example unframes a Siebel eSales application. For more information, refer to Siebel Tools Reference.
