Frames in HTML

• Generally the browser window can be used to display the one or more documents at a time.The window can be divided into rectangular areas, each of which is a "frame".
• By using <frameset> tag, we can specify the number of frames and their layout.i.e,A set of frames are defined using <frameset> tag which ends with </frameset> tag.
• A <frameset> tag takes the place of the <body> tag.i.e a HTML document has either a <body> or <frameset> tag, but can't both.
• The <frameset> tag must have either a "rows" or "cols" attribute and they often have both.
  
  format:
  

  <frameset [ cols=" %,%" ] [ rows="%,%" ]></frameset>

  
  ☑ rows: This attribute specifies the number of rows of frames that will occupy the window.
  
  ☑ cols: This attribute specifies the number of columns of frames that will occupy the window.


• The <frameset> tag have one inbuilt tag i.e <frame> tag.It is used to specifies the content of frame.
  
  format:
  

  <frame src="filename" [name="text"] [scrolling="yes"|"auto"|"no"][frameborder="yes"|"no"]></frame>

  
  The frame tag has several attributes and important among are "src" and "name".
  
  ☑ src: It specifies source for frame.
  
  ☑ name:It specifies the name of the frame.
