HTML: The Frame Tag

A page can be divided into frames using a special frame document.

The frame tag defines one specific window (frame) within a frameset. Each frame in a frameset can have different attributes, such as border, scrolling, the ability to resize, etc.

The frameset element specifies the number of columns or rows in the frameset, as well as what percentage or number of pixels of space each of them occupies.

frameset cols="100, 25%, *">
frameset rows="100, 25%, *">

Use the noresize attribute to specify that a user cannot resize a frame element:

frame noresize="noresize">

Frame content should be defined using the src attribute.

Lastly, the noresize element provides a way for browsers that do not support frames to view the page. The element can contain an alternative page, complete with a body tag and any other elements.

frameset cols="25%,50%,25%"
frame src="a.htm" /
frame src="b.htm" /
frame src="c.htm" /
noframes>Frames not supported!< /noframes
/frameset

Frames not supported!

NOTE: The frameset tag is not supported in HTML5.
