Hmmm, well maybe I'll think this one through before I remove the frames
after all.
There is a <NOFRAMES> section which complements a frames section.
If the broswer doesn't support frames then the <NOFRAMES> section
is displayed instead (automatically ??).
The only issue I guess is that I'd then have to add at least
some navigation info to the pages. Maybe just "Home" and "Index"
would suffice.
