Why use frames?
You can use multiple documents in one page using JSP's 'include' tag.
So you can design one page with a title banner, another with the navigation
and a third with content and obligatory tags and use the include tags in the
main (last) document to mould them together before deploying to the browser.
If there is a specific reason for you to use frames, please correct me.
