Yes, and then you lose the navigation for the rest of the whole site.

Though I think Frames can look cool, plus if a frame is used for the links page, it doesn't have to be loaded all the time.
I like them, if used right....
Forget about old browsers these days, if people can't be bothered to keep that upto date, and have such an old browser, then there's not a whole lot you can do for them... so I just ignore them. :o).

Taking off the menus is a pain in the backside. If youre going to do that, at least have a back button. This is made tricky as youre in frames, which arent internet friendly. People cannot store links to particular pages in their favourites.

OK, I'm working on a new first page which will not tell anyone what res the site is best used in. I was thinking about having the logo at the top linked to the first page, I would have to tell the user that though because it is not obvious.

Some older browsers don't support Java or Flash either, but no-one complains about them.

So design your site better! :-)

Again, if a site is designed well enough, it shouldn't matter too much. You should always bookmark the main frameset anyway...

You can use META tags to prevent any decent search engine from indexing incorrect pages.

'diggerent'? Heh! So you put both sets of tags in... no big deal, as a browser ignores tags it doesn't understand.
> They smell of old people.
Erm...
I don't mind frames at all. My site uses them, and the one I'm designing for my cousins wife at the moment will also use frames.
Tables etc. are okay for layout, but you repeat a lot of code. I don't like having the whole page disappear and re-appear whenever I click a link.
Have to admit though, I've not upated my site for a while... maybe I'll change my mind when it comes time to re-design it... which will be soon-ish.

Frames are the tool of the devil.
Really though...
Some older browsers do not support them at all.
With scripts that change more than one frame your back button does not work.
You cannot save a framed page to your favourites, or link to it from another site unless another frameset page is made (defeating the object/a huge faff)
Frames are not search-engine friendly, if a search engine spider finds a framed page it will list it as the main page and then your menu isnt there
Frame border attributes are diggerent in IE and Netscape, requiring 2 sets of tags in your code to display them as you like.
They smell of old people.
Any others?

I'd just like to know what people have against frames...
I like them!
I like them!
I agree with turbo, though I wont be as harsh... :)
Having a "Best viewed at..." Is not acceptable. People dont want to hear that they need a new monitor to see your site as its meant to be. Your code should adapt to the screen size.
Taking off the menus is a pain in the backside. If youre going to do that, at least have a back button. This is made tricky as youre in frames, which arent internet friendly. People cannot store links to particular pages in their favourites.
Check in your html editor about default font-sets. Browsers default to Times if the font isnt there.
Other than that (and the colours - you might get away with it if it's not so dark), it's pretty cool.
