- Filter
In HTML, a filter is a type of event handler. Filters can be either visual or nonvisual. Nonvisual filters can be applied to alter various style sheet attributes, such as color, font size, and even position of an element or control. Visual filters, which are extensions to Internet Explorer behavior, create onscreen effects in a document's contents.
- Font embedding
Font embedding allows the fonts used in the creation of a document to travel with that document so that the user sees the pages exactly as the author intended them to be seen.
- Frame
A frame is a rectangular section of a Web page that is a separate HTML document from the rest of the page. Frames allow the browser display window to be sub-divided into separate sections each of which can be updated or have new documents loaded into it separately from the remaining frame sections. Frame-based layouts are particularly useful if information is required across the whole range of Web pages, such as tables of contents, title graphics, or navigational bars. A disadvantage to frames, however, is that they require more files from the Web server.

- Function
Function is the general term used for a bit of code that performs a specific, limited task. Functions (also known as subroutines) allow the programmer to break down complex tasks into smaller, more manageable pieces. Problems can be isolated more readily since each subroutine or function can be tested separately.
