Hi there,
I'm currently trying to make a decision about whether to use a frameset or
not on the webapp I'm building. Most of the pages have a (more or less)
static
menu on the left side. The right part of the pages is dynamic content
fetched from a db and forms...
Using a frameset (menu/content seperation) I'm afraid of not being able to
provide direct links (for
example in emails which are sent to the clients) to specific pages. If I use
a frameset, do I have to write heaps of utility-code to get the user
redirected "through" the frameset/startpage?
I guess this is just one of the drawbacks when using frames. What are
others? Bookmarking comes into my mind... What do I have to pay special
attention to?
Could anybody please provide a link to some further reading or share some
experiences?
Thanks in advance!
