Sets the number and size of vertical and horizontal frames for a compound document. Compound documents are rendered according to the frame-rendering rules described in Frames. Use the FRAME element within the FRAMESET attribute to define the content and properties of the individual frames. You can also nest FRAMESET elements to create frames within a frame.

Attributes

CLASS= classname

Specifies the class of the element being defined. This is used to associate a subclassed style sheet with the element.

COLS= col-widths

A comma-delimited list of frames to create. Each item in the list contains the initial size of the column. You can specify the column dimensions by percentage (%), pixels, or a relative size (*)

ID= value

An SGML ID used as the target for hypertext links or for naming particular elements in associated style sheets. Valid ID values must begin with a letter. The underscore ("_") can be used in the ID name. The ID should be unique throughout the document. If more than one object with the same ID exists in a document, a collection of those named items is created that can only be referenced by ordinal position.

ROWS= row-heights

A comma-delimited list of frames to create. Each item in the list contains the initial size of the row. You can specify the row dimensions by percentage (%), pixels, or a relative size (*).

Remarks

A FRAMESET element organizes multiple frames on the screen. Only frames and nested FRAMESET elements are valid within a frameset.

This element is a block element.

Both the start and end tags are required.
