Frame Element(HTML)

FRAME

• Frame allows you to divide the page into several rectangular areas and to display a separate document in each rectangle.
• Each of those rectangle is known as “Frame”.
• Using frames, you can display multiple HTML document in the same browser window.
• Each HTML document is called a frame, and each frame is independent of the others.

FRAMESET

• The frameset element holds one or more <FRAMESET> or <FRAME> elements. Each frame element can hold a separate document.

Example:

<frameset cols="25%,50%,25%">
<frame src="frame_a.htm" />
<frame src="frame_b.htm" />
<frame src="frame_c.htm" />
</frameset>

NOFRAME

• The <noframes> tag is used for browsers that do not handle frames.
• The noframes element can contain all the elements that you can find inside the body element of a normal HTML page.
• The noframes element is most used to link to a non-frameset version of the web site or to display a message to users that frames are required.
• The noframes element goes inside the frameset element.
