  Frames > Deciding To Use Frames

  Deciding to Use Frames

The decision to frame your site will have long-range implications, particularly in terms of development effort.

When deciding whether to use frames, you'll want to consider both the advantages and the disadvantages of doing so.

Advantages of using frames

Frames are widely used on the Internet and are perceived as a hallmark of a technically sophisticated site.
Frames can be implemented to accommodate older browsers that can't actually display frames.
Frames reduce downloading time.
Frames improve site usability. Navigation remains visible as content changes in a separate frame.
Because frames separate content from navigation elements and structural elements, you can easily and quickly update pages and provide new content.

Disadvantages of using frames

Frames have an inconsistent usability record.
Frame navigation is a mystery to many, and the mystery is compounded because many framed sites have links that seem to appear randomly.
Frames may take more space than they are worth.
