Good grief. I don't know where to start.
The reason for using or not using frames should be based on a) your site's
needs, and b) your willingness to accept the potential problems that frames
can create for you as developer and maintainer of the site and for your
visitors as casual users of the site.
I am down on frames because I believe that they create many more problems
than they solve.
Judging from the posts here, and the kinds of problems that are described,
the kind of person most likely to elect to use frames is also the kind of
person most likely ill-prepared fo solve the ensuing problems when they
arise. If you feel a) that you understand the problems and b) that you are
prepared to handle them when they occur, and c) that you have a need to use
frames, then by all means use them.
As far as I know, the most comprehensive discussions of frames and their
potential problems can be found on these two links -

As for the pop-up menus, please read this carefully....

Hello everybody.I am developing a site and I faced a problem related to
Show Up
menu.First of all, I created a multi Framed site with more than 4 frames.I
create a show-up menu,and I want when the user select a choice from this
pop-up
menu to display html pages and flashes in more than two frames(more than
two
targets).For example, the rollover image can use the Go to URL behavior to
do
this for more than two frame.
Can I do this using the show up menu?Or do I have to create rollover
images
and made them choices of a Pop Up menu?
Can I do this by writing some Javascript?
Thank you for your time. |
