I don't know a single webbrowser that doesn't support frames, and I've never understood the complaints against them. I find them myself rather neat. On the other hand, the current evolution of HTML I'm firmly against. Complicating things needlessly so that it becomes impossible to code HTML by hand without using an IDE is not my idea of progress.

I'd rather say "darn IE" since it's IE which is not following standards, rather than other browsers.

Rather, you should keep with the standards. They are there for a reason. Not so many people use IE as you might think (not a problem for me, Opera shows up the page perfectly). Christophe Grandsire. http://rainbow.conlang.free.fr You need a straight mind to invent a twisted conlang.
