Navigating Sites with Frame Technology

1. The "Back" Button:

The Back button in the tool bar allows you to review pages that you've just visited by recalling the URL of an entire screen or frameset. It doesn't, however, call up the URL of the last frame you viewed. Therefore, by pressing the back button you could potentially move back farther than you had planned.

2. Moving Back Within a Frame:

If you are using Windows* or Unix* you will need to use the right mouse button in order to go back within a frame. If you click on the right mouse button within the frame you would like to go back in you will see a menu like this:

It's also possible that you'll start out in a frame and follow a link to a window designed without frames. In this case, the frames you've been seeing will disappear. Now, pressing the Back button will lead you back to the last framed page.

3. Bookmarking Frames

To create a bookmark in any frameset, position your cursor over the link you'd like to bookmark and click on the right mouse button. When the pop-up menu appears, choose Add Bookmark for this Link. Please note that if you choose to create a bookmark for the entire page, it will bookmark the UR Lfor the original frameset, which may not be the bookmark you meant to choose.

4. Printing Frames

To print a page, select the frame you want to print by clicking in it. Then, from the File menu, select Print Frame.
