800X600 can get a full vue of a web page that use a frame and that was built
on a 800X600 resolution screen.

Some mistaken assumptions here:

1) Just because their screen resolution is XxY does not mean their
viewport is anything close to that. You're assuming all visitors want to
view full-screen.

2) If the viewport is larger than 800x600, then something optimized for
800x600 should have no problem being rendered within the larger viewport.
I'm not certain what you're asking here.

3) Avoid frames. Bookmarking problems, direct linking with the other
frames present impossible without making a frameset for every possible
combination, etc. Better - use SSI or PHP to include repeated elements and
CSS to position them. The attitude that people want the navigation there
all the time seems to be a myth - most users don't seem to care. Allow it
to scroll with the rest of the page - or, you can use position: fixed; on
some browsers (not IE) to have it stay put (but be sure to allow a
scrollbar if the viewport is too short to show it all).

Frames are icky. They make me want to kill my neighbors.

Designing for one screen resolution is destined to fail. Design for ALL
screens.
As Neal has already said, there's no guarantee that the user has their
browser open to the full window.
Right now I'm running 1680 wide resolution. I love it. I am working in one
window and watching Van Helsing on DVD on the other.
