I've got a page where I want to have three frames or areas. On the left - 
 
two rows - on the right a single area. Thing is - on the right - I need to 
 
load a web page for preview use. 
 
From what I've read, framesets are a bad thing. What can I do instead? 
 
I'm using .Net 2.0 
 
TIA - Jeff.

If I were to use frames, how could I in code behind get at the different 
 
frames? Are they available to me on the page or don't they actually exist?

Nothing wrong with frames, they can be a bit tricky to work with sometimes. 
 
If your looking to load a whole web page, as opposed to some output into an 
 
area you dont have much choice but to use a frame or an iframe as more than 
 
one head/body tag in a single page etc. is very bad karma. If your only 
 
looking to load some web content then a panel control or placeholder control 
 
would suffice.

You can only talk across frames client side, so look at javascript and 
 
output the javascript you require to do your inter frame comms from your 
 
code behind.
