Does the site use frames?

Often, a frame of a frameset has Javascript to embed itself in the proper
frameset. This is useful where the frame of the frameset is linked to from
a search engine.

Becuse of problems like this, frames for the most professional sites have
been depreciated.

Regards

Nick.
