WebworkFrames

"Frames" is (are?) a browser feature that allows for division of the main window into smaller, scrollable sub-windows called frames.

Similar in concept to tables, frames allow for more flexibility in design.

The source for the two-framed window you are viewing is three separate HTML documents:

  1. defines the frameset (how many frames, what size, horizontal or vertical, etc.)
  2. contains the content that appears in the left frame
  3. contains the content that appears in the right frame
The frameset document for this two-frame window is called frame1.html which looks like this:

<html><title>webwork frames</title>

<frameset cols="50%,50%">
<frame src="left.html">
<frame src="right.html">
</frameset>

The contents of the left window are in the "left.html" document and the contents of the right window are in "right.html" (both of which are located in the same directory as the frame1.html doc).
