The noframes tag is a way to make sure that users who aren't using frame-enabled browsers are able to read your web pages. Since most users have frame-enabled browsers, you don't need to put a whole lot of time into your noframes content. But it should be there, nonetheless.

Basically, your noframes tag should go just inside the BODY tag of your document. Then you should include normal HTML code to indicate to your readers what this page looks like. Finally, you should include a /noframes tag just before the /BODY tag.

For instance, here is some code from one of our examples.

...
</FRAMESET>

<BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF">
<noframes>
This page uses frames.  It loads a menu-bar and two secondary pages.

<P><A HREF="nav.html">The menu page.</A>
<BR><A HREF="page3.html">The main page.</A><BR>
<BR><A HREF="page4.html">The second page.</A</P>>

</noframes>
</BODY>
</HTML>

In this case, the noframes tag is used to contain just a small bit of information so that the reader can find their way to the data stored on those pages. Remember, your frame pages themselves are normal HTML pages, so you only need to worry about including the noframes tag on FRAMESET pages.
