----- Original Message ----- From: "John Horner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, October 26, 2004 9:28 AM Subject: [WSG] Target Attributes | The last thing I want to do is start the "can I open new windows" | debate again -- my question is, are we not allowed to use frames any | more? | | To put it another way, I believe that frames should be avoided in all | situations *except* the building of online applications. If one wants | to build an online email app for instance, surely the use of frames | is still valid (in the colloquial rather than the code sense)? | | But if I were to build that online application, with a left and right | frame, and I wanted to make my links in the left frame targe the | right frame, they couldn't ever be valid [X]HTML strict. | | My thought was that there should be a strict DTD which still allows | targets, for use in these contexts, but there doesn't seem to be. | What am I missing? Do web standards simply forbid frames outright? | ------------------------------------------------------------ | "Have You Validated Your Code?" | John Horner (+612 / 02) 9333 2110 | Senior Developer, ABC Online http://www.abc.net.au/ | ------------------------------------------------------------ | | ****************************************************** | The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ | | See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm | for some hints on posting to the list & getting help | ****************************************************** | | ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
