Now in this tutorial I’m going to show you how to nest your frames. The possibilities with nesting frames are endless once you know how to do it. There is no limit to how many frames you can nest but don’t get carried away, it can make things difficult for web users.

Now let me show you how to change the colors of your frames and framesets borders by using the bordercolor attribute.

In this tutorial, we are going to create a simple navigational frame. We will need the <frameset> tag along with the cols attribute. We will also need two <frame> tags with the src attribute. In addition, our last <frame> tag will also need the name attribute.

In this tutorial, I will show you how to create another navigational frame using the <base> tag. Now if you remember the source code from the last tutorial "How To Create A Navigational Frame", we will still be using the same code except for the exception of the <base> tag. We will also be removing all the target attributes from the <a> tags in the frame_nav.htm web page. In addition, we will be adding the target attribute to the <base> tag. So instead of having many target attributes we will only need one, which will be in the <base> tag.

Frames are a great way to display multiple viewable browser windows on one web page. For instance, say one frame might hold your company logo or banner while the other frame holds your navigational menu and your third frame holds your main content for your web page that can be changed by clicking a link in the navigational menu frame, all from the same browser window, this will take place.
