Well, it's not quite right no.  <noframes> has to be enclosed within 
<frameset>, which in turn must be enclosed within <html>

So a fully compliant frames/no frames page would look something like:

<html>
         <head>
         <title>whatever</title>
         </head>

      <frameset rows="*,*">

         <frame src="one.html" name=one>
         <frame src="two.html" name=two>

         <noframes>

         <body>
         normal body stuff goes here
         </body>

         </noframes>

      </frameset>
</html>

Browsers that don't know about frames will just ignore all the 
frame-related tags and jump straight from </head> to <body> 
(which means that, yes, it would be a good idea to have some 
content there <g>); conversely, frame-aware browsers will know 
to ignore anything contained within <noframes>.
