Frames or Non-Frames

greenspun.com : LUSENET : TNS Website : One Thread

Non-Frames is generally best. Frames are not often suitable for a public website. The admin pages (used by only a few staff members) and control panels can use frames, but it is an overly complex structure for most public applications. Using frames can result in bookmarking difficulties and also limits the website content visibility to search engines. Frames are useful for more complex applications including intranet web pages, lengthy reference documents, limited access pages, and multiple document interfaces.
