I agree with Kris that you can do what you want with tables. I use frames
with a couple of the pages that we have and they can be kind of a pain to
put up with. If I were creating a page for someone else, I would opt to not
use frames, unless of course they insisted. Also, one nice thing with Front
Page is that the buttons you can have on each page kind of gives you an
illusion of frames.
