Hello all,
I completed the Dreamweaver NetG courses yesterday. There are two of them, and they are quite useful in that they give you a preassessment to see what you already know before you start the course and a postassessment to see how much you have improved by the end of the course. Overall, I think I did pretty well. They consider "Mastery" to be an 80%, and I did 83% on one and 87% on the other. I think the main part I really wanted to learn about was how to incorporate CSS. I am going to try that this weekend to see if I trully understood the NetG tutorials.
I also had a question about frames - Is it considered bad design to use frames because of accessibility concerns? I know it's that way for tables, but I wasn't sure if that was true for frames also. Let me know if you know. Thanks!
Kathryn :)

Hi, Kathryn:
Based on my web design experience, frame is not well recommended. I think you can pretty much use table to achieve what frame can do on designing your page. You can use table to create one master page as the template from which other pages are created, and then all the pages can keep the same structure.

Kathryn: bad things about using frame are:
- Fault Bookmark
- Fault print target page
- Frames with no scrolling; some part of the page might be hidden.
- Frames as Copyright violation! (if you pull other pages into your website using frame)
- difficult to handle other attributes and targets: FRAMEBORDER, SCROLLING
If I'm not mistaken, I got this list from Ardith Ibañez & Natalie Zee. 1998. HTML Artistry: more than code, Hayden Books, Indiana.
