Another option if the hosting service allows it is to use
includes, the drawback is you can no longer use an htm
extension, it would need to become shtm. If the pages are
already using some type of server scripting (eg php, asp),
then there are include facilities inside of there:
default.htm
<frameset>
<frame name="header" src="/common/header.htm">
<frame name="main" src="main.htm">
</frameset>
can be replaced with:
default.shtm
<div id="header">
<!--#include virtual="="/common/header.htm"-->
</div>
<div id="main">
<!--#include virtual="="main.htm"-->
</div>
: Each of your pages technically are individual. They are
just loaded into the
: same area that exists in the frameset page. Kind of like a
rotating
: billboard, it's the same space being viewed, but different
items can be
: loaded into that view.
:
: As Thomas suggested, youc ould use shared borders which
can then be applied
: to all pages in the site. Before you use them though, I
would recommend
: backing up your site just in case it messes something up
so you can easily
: go back to what you had. When doing a large-scale change
to a site, things
: can easily get goofy and a backup can save a ton of
aggrevation.
