So if someone finds your site from a search engine, they can't get 
anywhere from a found page?  This seems like a mistake.  Even if you 
put in JavaScript to always bring up the frame context, it won't work 
for a lot of browsers.

I recommend that you always have basic links on the content page, so 
people can get *somewhere* from there.  All the good web info 
architects and UI designers I know, including Jakob Nielsen, Jennifer 
Fleming and Lou Rosenfeld, say "don't let people get into dead ends".

PS I wrote a white paper for Ultraseek on robot indexing, all about 
the problems with frames, JavaScript, image maps, and so on.  You 
might find it useful -- it's at
