A Web site technique that divides a single page into two separate entities Back to top
divide the main browser's display window into independent window frames Each frame can simultaneously display a different document The display window may be divided into columns and rows of individual frames separated by scrollbars
A method of breaking up a web page so that you can view two or more pages simultaneously in the same browser window Commonly used, as in the old Essex website, to provide a navigation bar on the left of the browser window This technique was fashionable for a time, but makes it hard for search engines to index a site and causes problems for users with special accessibility needs
An HTML technique allowing web site designers to display two or more pages in the same browser window Most search engines do not index framed web pages properly - they only index the text present in the NOFRAMES tag Unless a web page which uses frames contains relevant content in the NOFRAMES tag, it is unlikely to get a high search engine ranking
Some web pages are actually composed of two or three individual web pages, arranged in 'frames' You might often come across a 'navigation frame', providing links to key areas of a site, that will remain on screen as you browse the site of which it is a part Some apparently framed sites actually create the impression by using tables instead of frames
The use of multiple, independent sections to create a single Web page Each frame is built as a separate HTML file but with one "master' file to identify each section When a user requests a page with frames, several pages will be displayed as panes Sites using frames may report one page request with several panes as multiple page requests Most audit firms count only the master HTML page request and therefore can accurately report the page requests
An HTML technique for combining two or more separate HTML documents within a single web browser screen Compound interacting documents can be created to make a more effective web page presented in multiple windows or sub-windows A framed web site often causes great problems for search engines, and may not be indexed correctly Search engines will often index only the part of a framed site within the <NOFRAMES> section, so make sure that the <NOFRAMES> section includes relevant text which can be indexed by the spiders If your site uses frames, consider providing a gateway page or adding navigational links within the framed pages Submit the main page - the one containing the <FRAMESET> tag to the search engines If you use a gateway page, submit this separately
Frames enable a browser to display content from two or more web pages at once A common use of frames is to have a table of contents on one side of the browser linking to more pages on the other side
The browser display is separated into different sections, each with its own scroll bar (if needed) Some sections can remain unchanged displaying advertising or an index, whereas the main section or frame acts as a normal browser display Not all browsers support frames
A feature of some web browsers that enables a page to be displayed in separate scrollable windows Frames can be difficult to translate for text-only viewing via ADA guidelines, so their use is increasingly being discouraged
Web Frames allow web publishers to divide the browser window into multiple HTML documents Each frame contains an individual document that function independently of the other frames
A term used to describe a viewing and layout style of a World Wide Web site; it refers to the simultaneous loading of 2 or more Web pages at the same time within the same screen Originally developed by Netscape and implemented in their Navigator 2 0 browser, today many other popular Web browsers support this feature With frames, often you have one frame acting as a 'control frame' while the other is the 'target frame' - the results of actions in the control frame display in the target frame Back to Top
– A feature of HTML that allows a web author to divide a page into two or more separate windows If the frame does not have a <title> element, or the <title> element is not meaningful this can cause accessibility issues In addition, some browsers do not support frames Index
Definition: A coding style that is used to combine multiple HTML documents into a single web page Frames are often used to allow certain areas of a web site to remain in place (i e navigation, header graphic) while other areas of the site are scrollable Framed web sites are more difficult to optimize for high search engine rankings because most spiders are unable to read and index the content within a tag Sites that are designed using frames need to place optimized content in the in order to provide the search engine spiders with something to index
World-wide web Frames are areas of a web browser window into which some pages of world-wide web content are divided Whilst many web designers advocate the use of frames to ease navigation (with frames permitting, for example, a static menu to remain alongside a scrolling document display), others bemoan their use as frames tend to create cumbersome and cluttered layouts on smaller displays Some older web browsers and most Net-top boxes also have difficulty displaying frames, whilst even newer browsers often have difficulty reliably printing them Many web sites therefore now choose to offer both a "frames" and a "non-frames" option
The new frames feature of Netscape Navigator 2 0 is a sophisticated page-presentation capability that enables the display of multiple, independently scrollable frames on a single screen, each with its own distinct URL Frames can point to different URLs as well as be targeted by other URLs - all within the same screen Developers can now incorporate banners, ledges, tables of contents, and display panels into their designs, allowing users to scroll through multiple sites simultaneously, submit database queries in one frame and receive back instant results in another and even freeze regions of the screen in place while the user scrolls through information on a page
'Frames' are pages within an HTML page Frames behave like a separate window They can have their own menus, scroll bars, and content Frames let you keep certain content (your logo and menu for example) fixed on the screen, when users scroll down to read text You can also use frames to display someone else's web site inside your web site
