Why are frames so difficult?

By Jennifer Kyrnin, About.com

Question: Why are frames so difficult?

Answer:

Frames were developed with Netscape 2.0, but were not included in the HTML definition until HTML 4.0. Because of that, there is some confusion in both how to use them and how they are implemented.

Using frames in your Web pages doesn't need to be as hard as it seems, take the time to read frames tutorials and tips for using frames before you post your framed Web site.
