Notes
• The content model says that the
<frameset>
tag contains one or more
<frame>
tags, which are used to indicate the framed contents. A
<frameset>
tag also might
contain a
<noframes>
tag, whose contents will be displayed by browsers that do
not support frames.
• HTML5 currently does include support for frames beyond the inline frame defined
by an
<iframe>
tag.
• The
<frameset>
tag replaces the
<body>
tag in a framing document, as shown
here:
