Almost all of my web sites have at least two frames. IFrames are great for putting a lot of info into a page while keeping it easy to navigate.

There are situations where frames are bad too, but I don't run into those. Ever.

Depends.

Business site? No way.

Personal site? Up to you.

Our development group NEVER uses them.

Actually like Frames?
No.

But, as long as the sites code always lets me get to outside links and does not keep me trapped inside your frames, I would consider frames a minor nuisance; if I get trapped, you get email from me, 'cuz thats major!

Spiders and bots can't read frames. They would only find your index page. Don't hope to be search engine friendly using frames. My Web Site Layout & Design instructor showed us how to implement frames but told us that if we submitted a layout with frames, it would count as a non submission. No frames accepted

Cheers!

I don't like frames. They're a pain, especially if you want to print out the page you're viewing.

i think people that use frames simply haven't discovered the full potential of tables. you can do anything with a table. Frames are quite unnecessary and drive people to drink. And like I said, tables are just so much cleaner.
