The short answer is yes you can.  Why it's not working for you is most
likely a problem in your environment or one of the individual JSP pages.
Here are some tests to narrow down the problem:  Can you load the frameset
jsp page without referencing menu.jsp?  Can you load menu.jsp without using
the frameset jsp page?  Once you have these two files working independently,
they should work together in the frameset.  I use JSPs and framesets
together quite frequently and haven't had any problems with them.

The only comment I have about JSP documentation is that it relies heavily on
the individual being already familiar with HTML and HTTP.  It's difficult to
work with JSP unless you have a good understanding of the foundation that
it's built upon.
