Adding Advanced Design Features Part III
Using the frame object can be, quite literally, a one-click operation. Just select the desired frameset from the
Frames menu of the Insert bar, and Dreamweaver automatically turns on Frame Borders, if necessary, and
creates and names the required frames. For all frame objects, the existing page is moved to a frame in which
the scrolling option is set at Default, and the size is relative to the rest of the frameset. In other words, the
existing page can be scrolled, and it expands to fill the content.
Because Dreamweaver automatically puts the existing document into an expandable frame with
scroll bars, it??™s most efficient to apply a frame object to an existing page only if that page is
intended to be the primary content frame.
