      ShowSelect a page that is already created

ShowTip

When you use frames pages and frames to organize your Web site, you should not use shared borders (shared borders: Page regions reserved for content that you want to appear consistently on all your Web pages. Shared borders usually contain link bars, which contain hyperlinks to the other pages and locations.) or link bars (link bar: A collection of graphic or text buttons representing hyperlinks to pages both within your Web site and to external sites.). Using shared borders or link bars along with frames will make your Web site confusing to navigate.
