Just relax. Toby Inkster has made at various times very good suggestions
about frames. The decision whether to use them these days for serious sites
is not so hard given the problems.
But you are right that these problems are not the end of the world. I think
they are a very attractive and tempting technology. It is straight out nice
that a nav list does not disappear, there is something almost ridiculous in
fact in it doing so. We have become used to this absurdity because it
creates less problems overall.
The one site I did do in frames, with a frameless home page, is nice to work
on because folk can get to anywhere quickly and directly from the content
nav bar. It is also terrific for me to check things out for the same reason.
I will get around to being rid of them one day, but everyone should have at
least one framed site kicking about somewhere.
I have said before and I will say again, search engine problems, bookmarking
and so on are not everything. Most sites are hardly seen by anyone and never
will be. Home sites are often nice for oneself, family, a few friends and a
few contacts now and then. Frames are fine and I would go further: they are
great for such.
