Trang 3A frameset document consists of separate frames As a matter of fact, each one of the frames is simply a small HTML document Frames can contain any normal HTML information, including text, tables, images, multimedia, objects, and even nested frames When you create a Frameset document, you're actually creating several separate docu-ments You have the frameset HTML document, and a separate HTML document for each of the frames For example, if you create a frameset with two frames, you're actually saving three separate documents: one for the frameset and one for each of the frames within the document

When you create a frameset with two frames, you're actually saving three separate documents: one for the frameset and one for each of the frames within the document You can save the frameset and each document in a frame individually or you can save them all at once
Before you can preview a frameset in a browser, you need to save the frameset and all frame document first Once the frame documents have been saved, they can be opened independently of the frameset and modified just like regular HTML documents; any changes to the page will be reflected when it's reopened in the frameset When you reopen the frameset document, it locates and reopens the associated pages and place them into the proper frames

Once a frameset is created, it’s possible, and quite likely, that you will want to modify the dimensions of the frames to fit a specific design need Remember that the frame within a frameset functions as a con-tainer for a specific HTML document If this document is not set up cor-rectly, you may experience problems with unwanted reformatting of the information when it displays in the browser window Therefore, it's important to modify the frames to give your document the best look and feel for the visitor
