I don't think many on this list would even consider the use of frameset.
Frameset is regarded as an obsolete, inflexible and user-unfriendly way
to lay out pages/sites.
I will *not* recommend it, but there's a standard to follow on the
source-code level...
<http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/present/frames.html>

The examples presented in my last response have nothing to do with
frameset. They are CSS based and can be implemented in such a way that
they are both future-proof (the method can be upgraded to go with future
(X)HTML and CSS standards) and more user-friendly.

This CSS method has also been around for a while...
<http://www.w3.org/Style/Examples/007/menus.html>
...and is supported by the latest versions of all major browsers -
without any workarounds.

Recommended - I use it all the time...

...but maybe not the way you had in mind.
