Has anyone run a forum set within html frames successfully?
Seems to me that you have the opportunity of including other stuff like links or images in another frame running alongside. People are buying big monitors these days, which means a lot of usable real estate.
On the other hand, I can see navigation being an issue.
Here's how someone else uses frames: http://www.digidesign.com/ navigate to support/User Conference. They could more effectively run that down the side. |

I have in our church's website. I don't think there was any modifications required to base code, but some mods (not all) have been troublesome with a tendency to break out of frames (private messages is a good example), and require minor code tweaks to operate in frames.

Its done, and sometimes well. But I personally try to avoid them whenever possible. That's why it drives me up a wall when the company Bobby used to register the domain forwards it to the official site using a frame. =/
I'm not saying they don't have their uses, but they do have their drawbacks. |

I've had a look now, and wow! I'm really impressed. It makes mine look real dull, and gives me a standard to aim at.
How long did it take you...? |
