Let me state that despite some of the issues against frames, I prefer to use
them for most of my applications primarily for cosmetic reasons (where I
think most of the gain is). Here are some of my opinions...
Con Frames...
Bookmarking a page is difficult.
Complex applications will almost always require extensive JavaScript to
communicate between frames.
Usually only one entry point (again bookmarking).
Search engines seem to prefer a single page vs. a frameset.
Pro Frames...
Ease of navigation.
Some layout advantages (cosmetic difference).
More window control (ex. Outlook type "Preview Pane" for an email app).
I know there's more but I'll leave room for others to point those out..;-)
