Using Frames
This demonstration shows a common page layout using frames to divide a Web page. Commonly, the top frame would hold identity elements; a logo, the name of the organization, etc.The left frame would hold a navigation menu. Each frame is a separate HTML page, and could be displayed separately as well.

Note that the frames are named, so that a Web browser can identify them. Here we've revealed the names. Naming the frames is key to using them effectively. When the frames are named, a "target" attribute can be added to any hyperlink.

The first two links in the menu on the left are links to other pages in the same Web site. Clicking on them loads a different page in the right Frame. The third is a link to an external resource. Notice that when it is clicked, the external Web page loads entirely in the right frame. This type of "capturing" is undesireable for a number of reasons.
