The <frame> tag was invented by Netscape in the fall of 1995 with the
beta releases of their 2.0 browser, which also introduced Livescript
(very soon to be redubbed Javascript).  It was aimed at compound
document display.  Microsoft invented <iframe> as a way to embed
documents (not quite the same thing).  Both techniques had the "what
is the URL?" problem, which is why they came in for a lot of criticism
from those disparaged as "purists", although they were popular for a
while.
