use iframe or not

[xxarmoxx]

I am coding a simple CMS project and I really like this template I found online http://www.quackit.com/html/template...example_5.html however it uses iframes. Aren't iframes out dated? Is there anyway to convert this template to work without iframes?

Thanks in advance.

Don't use iframes for page layouts, there are issues that arise from doing so. For example, bookmarking a page.

iFrames can be used to include content from another site into your page, but definitely shouldn't be used for page layout.

To answer your second question, that layout is quite easy to build without using iframes. Break each section down into divs and work with that.

I'm sure one of the more active users of this forum will chime in with more detail, but I figured I would just give my quick $0.02.
