Did it work for you? Yes. Our own Web site is in Frame: http://www.omsys.com/dcl/omni.htm and I've done several for friends that way too. One benefit is the ability to make a PDF of the entire site, as in this one: http://www.amyneustein.com/contact.htm Media people love that; they can grab one PDF, and refer to it off-line while writing their story. (Amy is a *very* public figure in NYC.) We do all this with Mif2Go, of course; it's not hard. In fact, we have single-click updating, using runfm from a .bat to make the HTML, PDF, and the .zips in one shot. After a final check, a second .bat sends them all to the site by ftp. Takes five minutes after the editing in Frame is done, and never requires *any* postprocess. The Frame docs are all UNstructured, and I can't imagine what benefit structure would bring to something as free-form as a Web site... ;-) HTH! -- Jeremy H.
