13.5.4 Netscape FRAMES

Use these tags with caution, they may not be visible by browsers other than Netscape, or older versions of Netscape. Even if they are visible, they may not be rendered as expected.

Frames are not standardized in any public spec and are not viewable by many browsers.

If you must use frames, use <noframes> outside of the <frameset> tags - preferably at the *top* of the page - for critical links and text.
