Some advantages of having no frames is that your design can flow through out the site more freely also its easier to bookmark pages

Some advantages of having frames can be that your header is always visable as well as a nav-bar if you wished to do so.

The disadvantages far our weigh the advantages of frames if not done properly. As with many things frames can make or break your website so the choice is up to you.

One other thing it's a general rule of thumb for webdesigners not to use frames.

Hope this clears things up ,

i suggest you use frames only when u want to "incorporate" a page from other websites to your website.

Why dont use use the PHP include function? I use it and define the webpage location by the URL eg. you.x10hosting.com/index.php?path=index2.html
so the index.php will be the page with the header menus and footer and index2.html will be the content. The are lots of guides on the internet.
