2. FRAMES
The HTML frame is a powerful feature that enables a web page to be
broken into different unique sections that are related but can be
operated independently without depending on each other.
THE <Frameset> TAG
The splitting of a browser screen into frames can be done by using
<Frameset> and </Frameset> tags.
Framesets can be nested to any level and the concept is known as
nested frames.
3. ATTRIBUTES OF <Frameset> TAG

around a frame.
