I bet you hated framesets on the web when they were around.
- _delirium 15y agoWeren't frames pretty universally hated?
- zbowling 15y agoNot directly on their own usability. It was more that they broke the web, since bookmarks, shared URLs, and search engines couldn't navigate them correctly to get the user back to the content that was supposed to display correctly. The static positioned content we get with CSS and JS hacks I've seen to replicate it a start but not always correct on it's own.
- pyre 15y agoYou're also forgetting links to external sites that didn't properly have a target, so they opened within one of the frames.
- TillE 15y agoFrames were at least consistent. With CSS and Javascript, you can make things behave in whatever broken way you want.
