I have one problem with the following: it's not online.
So I had to copy/paste it to a local file and turn the validator on.
And guess what:

When I tried it, it *was* recognized. At least enough so the validator
could tell me it wasn't valid.
And why wasn't it valid? Because you used a transitional doctype for a
html file with a frameset.
Didn't you know that there is a special frameset doctype?
You'll find it here:

The right doctype, ofcourse.

Oh my, I hope this is not going to start one of those CSE-discussions again.

Anyway, the frameset-complaint is probably because you put the frameset
in the <head>-section, where it doesn't belong.
Like my grandmother used to say: First the head, then the frameset.
You do realize that frames are not very popular these days, do you?
