    Frames allow a browser window to be divided into multiple sections that can each load separate HTML documents. A collection of frames is called a frameset. Frames are arranged in rows and columns similar to tables. While frames allow dividing content, they have disadvantages like inconsistent display across devices and issues with back buttons. The <frameset> tag is used instead of <body> to define the frame layout using rows and cols attributes. Each frame is indicated by a <frame> tag specifying the source document. Attributes like name, target, and scrolling help control frames.

    HTML FRAMES

    INTRODUCTION
     HTML frames are used to divide your browser
    window into multiple sections where each section
    can load a separate HTML document.
     A collection of frames in the browser window is
    known as a frameset.
     The window is divided into frames in a similar way
    the tables are organized: into rows and columns.
    Disadvantages of Frames

    There are few drawbacks with using frames, so it's never


    recommended to use frames in your webpages −
     Some smaller devices cannot cope with frames often
    because their screen is not big enough to be divided up.
     Sometimes your page will be displayed differently on
    different computers due to different screen resolution.
     The browser's back button might not work as the user
    hopes.
     There are still few browsers that do not support frame
    technology.
    Creating Frames

     To use frames on a page we use <frameset> tag


    instead of <body> tag.
     The <frameset> tag defines, how to divide the
    window into frames.
     The rowsattribute of <frameset> tag defines
    horizontal frames and cols attribute defines vertical
    frames.
     Each frame is indicated by <frame> tag and it
    defines which HTML document shall open into the
    frame.
    Example to create three horizontal
    frames
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>HTML Frames</title>
    </head>
    <frameset rows = "10%,80%,10%">
    <frame name = "top" src = "/html/top_frame.html" />
    <frame name = "main" src = "/html/main_frame.html" />
    <frame name = "bottom" src = "/html/bottom_frame.html" />
    </frameset>
    </HTML>
    Creating vertical frames
     <frameset cols = "25%,50%,25%">
    The <frameset> Tag Attributes
     cols
    Specifies how many columns are contained in the frameset.
    You can specify the width of each column in one of the
    following ways −
    1. Absolute values in pixels. For example, to create three
    vertical frames, use cols = "100, 500, 100".
    2. A percentage of the browser window. For example, to
    create three vertical frames, use cols = "10%, 80%,
    10%".
    3. Using a wildcard symbol. For example, to create three
    vertical frames, use cols = "10%, *, 10%". In this case
    wildcard takes remainder of the window.
     rows
    This attribute works just like the cols attribute and
    takes the same values, but it is used to specify the
    rows in the frameset.
     border
    This attribute specifies the width of the border of
    each frame in pixels. For example, border = "5". A
    value of zero means no border.
     frameborder
    This attribute specifies whether a three-dimensional
    border should be displayed between frames. This
    attribute takes value either 1 (yes) or 0 (no). For
    example frameborder = "0" specifies no border
     framespacing

    This attribute specifies the amount of space between


    frames in a frameset. This can take any integer value.
    For example framespacing = "10" means there should
    be 10 pixels spacing between each frames.
    The <frame> Tag Attributes
     src
    This attribute is used to give the file name that
    should be loaded in the frame.
     name

    This attribute allows you to give a name to a


    frame. It is used to indicate which frame a document
    should be loaded into. T
     marginheight
    This attribute allows you to specify the height of the
    space between the top and bottom of the frame's
    borders and its contents. The value is given in pixels.
    For example marginheight = "10".
     scrolling
    This attribute controls the appearance of the
    scrollbars that appear on the frame. This takes
    values either "yes", "no" or "auto". For example
    scrolling = "no" means it should not have scroll bars.
     noresize

    By default, you can resize any frame by clicking


    and dragging on the borders of a frame. The
    noresize attribute prevents a user from being able
    to resize the frame.
    For example noresize = "noresize".
    Adding a Banner or Title Frame

     Add a row to the top for a title and graphics with


    the code as follows:

    Title of the page

    Menu.html Content.html
    example
    <html>
    <frameset rows="20%,*">
    <frame src="title.html">
    <frameset cols="30%,*">
    <frame src="menu.html">
    <frame src="content.html">
    </frameset>
    </frameset>

    </html>
    Frame's name and target attributes
    Test.html

    <html>
    <head>
    <title>HTML Target Frames</title>
    </head>
    <frameset cols = "200, *">
    <frame src = "/html/menu.html" name = "menu_page"
    >
    <frame src = "/html/main.html" name = "main_page" >
    </frameset>
    </html>
    Menu.html
    <html>
    <body bgcolor = "#4a7d49">
    <a href = “d:/table.html" target = "main_page">html tables</a>
    <br >
    <br >
    <a href = “d:/link.html" target= "main_page">html links</a>
    <br />
    <br />
    <a href = “d:/image.html" target = "main_page">html images</a>
    </body>
    </html>
    Main.html
    <html>
    <body bgcolor = "#b5dcb3">
    <h3>This is main page and content from any link will
    be displayed here.</h3>
    <p>So now click any link and see the result.</p>
    </body>
    </html>
