Frames were brilliant. It's just they had a few unpleasant side effects, that could have been ironed out given the will. One html menu/navigation as a frame that was editable in one place without resorting to programming languages/constructs for file includes. Piecemeal content aggregation via frames may, just may have been a better approach to web page building.

- flushandforget 10y agoMost people open pages in new tabs? Really? I have a family member that still can only cope with one tab.
- ihuman 10y agoAt the time most popular web browsers didn't have tabs. If you wanted to have two pages open at once, you had to open them in separate windows.
