Implementing Web Marketing without Frames

Customer and partner applications use HTML frames for compatibility when running in browser-based applications. HTML frames create portions of the browser window that can navigate independently of the rest of the window. For example, you can place the navigation elements in one frame and content in another frame. You can navigate the content while the navigation elements remain in a fixed location.

Customer and partner applications can be implemented without using frames. Before choosing this method, consider the following limitation. In an unframed application, all UI elements exist in the same window. Therefore, the contents list might move off the page as a user navigates down. For example, if the user navigates down to review content, the navigation elements might not be visible.
