Frame update html

It was last updated on April 26, Frames allow an author to divide a browser window into multiple rectangular regions. Multiple documents can be displayed in a single window, each within its own frame.

Graphical browsers allow these frames to be scrolled independently of each other, and links can update the document displayed in one frame without affecting the others. You can't just "add frames" to an existing document. Rather, you must create a frameset document that defines a particular combination of frames, and then display your content documents inside those frames. The HTML 4 frames model has significant design flaws that cause usability problems for web users.

Frames should be used only with great care. The following example creates a top frame named "navigation" and a bottom frame named "content":. Then, in the document with the link, use the TARGET attribute to specify which frame should be used to display the link. For example:. Note that when forms are processed entirely by JavaScript, the target frame must be specified in the JavaScript.

If there is no existing frame with the name you used for the TARGET attribute, then a new browser window will be opened, and this window will be assigned the name you used. Also, some browsers include a security feature that prevents documents from being hijacked by third-party framesets. In these browsers, if a document's link targets a frame defined by a frameset document that is located on a different server than the document itself, then the link opens in a new window instead. There are two basic techniques for updating multiple frames with a single link: The HTML-based technique links to a new frameset document that specifies the new combination of frames.

This attribute allows you to specify the width of the space between the left and right of the frame's borders and the frame's content. The value is given in pixels. This attribute allows you to specify the height of the space between the top and bottom of the frame's borders and its contents.

By default, you can resize any frame by clicking and dragging on the borders of a frame. The noresize attribute prevents a user from being able to resize the frame.

This attribute controls the appearance of the scrollbars that appear on the frame. This takes values either "yes", "no" or "auto". This attribute allows you to provide a link to another page containing a long description of the contents of the frame. You can put some nice message for your user having old browsers. For example, Sorry!! One of the most popular uses of frames is to place navigation bars in one frame and then load main pages into a separate frame.

Here, we have created two columns to fill with two frames. The first frame is pixels wide and will contain the navigation menu bar implemented by menu. Mahender Reddy.
