I always thought that frames were a no-no because they broke url
navigation. For example, the user could be a few clicks deep in a
frameset, but the url stills says www.xyz.com. When they make a
bookmark expecting it to take them to that deeper level, it just takes
them back to the main page.

Of course, AJAX now causes essentially the same problem, but
apparently it's a lot cooler than frames were, so it can get away with
it?
