Having started off my HTML career with "Killer Web Sites" - I was all for frames, bells, whistles, etc. Although I am now a "content convert" and agree fully with Mr Greenspun's views on intrusive and useless graphics, I find frames extremely useful in setting up an easily navigable website which can be updated by someone with little or no web design experience and yet maintain a corporate masthead and a consistent format.
