Since theres no target attribute, I assume therefore that frames are gone in XHTML and so are iframes. Is that right? Because without the target attribute you cant manipulate frames at all.
again... there's xhtml 1.0 strict, transitional, and frameset. use the doctype you need.
transitional has target and other legacy things from html 4.01 transitional, framesets has frames (and iframes too iirc).
frames are bad (accessibility and semantic wise) anyway...
Is that right?
uhm according to me, no ;)
I hate frames, but there are definitely uses for them. For example I have an app where I have a dynamic page from one server appearing in a frame in another server, called by a button using a target attribute. This would also be impossible under XHTML.
you could use javascript ;)
i know a few apps that get content like that. but iirc via xml-rpc calls, which don't work in opera yet.
