HTML frameset Tag

The <frameset> tag is an HTML tag used to create a grid-based layout by dividing the browser window into multiple frames. Each frame can contain a separate HTML document. However, it’s important to note that the <frameset> tag is also deprecated in HTML5 and should not be used in modern web development. Instead, you should use alternative methods for creating layouts, such as CSS grid or flexbox.

In the past, the <frameset> tag was commonly used in conjunction with the <frame> tag to define the structure of a frameset-based layout. Here’s an example:

HTML<span role="button" tabindex="0" data-code="<frameset cols="25%, 75%">       <frame src="menu.html">       <frame src="content.html">
<frameset cols="25%, 75%">
      <frame src="menu.html">
      <frame src="content.html">
</frameset>

In this example, the browser window is divided into two columns, where the first column contains a frame loading the “menu.html” document, and the second column contains a frame loading the “content.html” document.

However, as mentioned earlier, the use of frames and framesets is deprecated. Instead, you should consider using modern layout techniques, such as CSS grid or flexbox, to achieve similar layout structures. These techniques provide more flexibility, better compatibility, and improved accessibility compared to framesets.
