Frameset

Wrong, my friend.

Nowhere will you see me recommend frames for general use.

(.... sits back and waits for MP to provide a reference to disprove that
statement.)

It's just that there's so many 'urban myths' out there that, when
repeated enough times, take on the permanence of fact.

Just trying to keep you honest.

Good on you Jake, I still have a fond memory for frames. And you
can add that MP was too hopeful about Australia beating the
Safricans... (hi Mark!)

Perhaps not directly. But conversely I have never seen you say that
frames are not suitable for general use (I'm willing to be proved
wrong).

And anyone who recommends *not* using frames gets cried down with shouts
of "Heretic!" (yes, I'm exaggerating . Therefore you are indirectly
recommending them.

Just trying to keep you honest.

Ditto.

I don't. I hate using frames sites, and I hated writing frames sites
(only ever did one or two).

And you
can add that MP was too hopeful about Australia beating the
Safricans...

*mutter grumble mutter* But there's 2 games left - we can still win the
series.

Actually, a well-written frames-based site won't give you any
accessibility problems.

You're right. But making a frames-based site properly accessible takes
far more work than one without frames. That's not worth it IMNSHO,
unless you're charging by the hour. :-D

Probably we will. Honestly, I still reckon the Poms just got
lucky, but that there is something always more inherently
dangerous about the Safricans. A gut feeling. Anyway, best wishes
over next week or so....

Yes, and especially with Kallis likely to be back.

Ditto. Do Martians have any special traditions for Christmas? Do they
celebrate Christmas?

So that is why I made a frames based site! And why I undid a
frames based site. And maybe why I should redo some in frames...

We're talking cricket here, right?

Sadly, if it's a choice between watching cricket and watching paint dry
...... well, that's a tough one ;-)

Ditto.

As 'honest' men, we'll just have to agree to differ on this one .....
until next time ;-)

Yes, I understand.

I like watching live, even a small village team, brings back fond
memories... But, if you have no history with the game or watch it
on telly, it is harder...

In the new year I will make a framed site just for fun, because I
can and because it is one of the few things one can do to buck
the "established" view...
