Frames allow multiple windows to be created on the browser's base window. The browser is
effectively split up into multiple areas. Each frame may be given a name or ID. Using the target
attribute of the tag, a web page may be displayed in another frame.

Although frames behave as defined, the small size of the screen makes them impractical to use.
Just like tables, frames take up too much room on the display. One could, though, take advantage
of frames by having a small "table of contents" frame with images for links. In general, however,
use of frames is strongly discouraged.
