Tutorial 5 Frames Review
1. The FRAMESET element describes how the frames
are organized and displayed within the browser window.
2. The general syntax for creating an XHTML file
with frames does not include an opening and closing <BODY> tag.
3. To create a frame layout, you use the rows
and cols attributes of the <FRAMESET> tag.
4. You cannot use both the rows and cols
attributes within a single <FRAMESET> tag.
5. There IS NO limit to the number of
rows/columns you can specify for a frameset?
6. Row and column sizes can be specified IN
POINTS, AS A PERCENTAGE OF THE TOTAL SIZE OF THE FRAMESET, and BY THE AMPERSAND.
7. In specifying the size of rows/columns in a
frameset, the ASTERISK instructs the browser to allocate any unclaimed space in
the frameset to the particular row or column.
8. The tag <FRAMESET COLS=”160,25%,*”>
lays out frames in which the first column is 160 pixels wide, the second column
is 25% of the display area, and the third column covers whatever space is left.
9. It is a good idea to specify at least one of
the rows or columns of your frameset tag with a(n) ASTERISK
to ensure that the frames fill up the screen regardless of a user’s monitor
settings.
10. The tag <FRAMESET ROWS=”*,*,*”> creates
three rows of frames with equal heights.
11. You must insert the <frame> tag between
the opening and closing <FRAMESET> tags.
12. THE APPEARANCE OF SCROLL BARS, THE SIZE OF THE
MARGINS AND WHETHER OR NOT THE USER IS ALLOWED TO RESIZE THE FREAME are all aspects of a frame’s appearance that can
be controlled.
13. To control the appearance of scroll bars in a
frame, use the SCROLLING attribute in the <frame> tag.
14. In the <frame> tag, if scrolling is set
to NO, the scroll bars will never display.
15. The NORESIZE attribute is included within the
<frame> tag to prevent users from modifying the sizes of your frames.
16. By default, clicking a hypertext link within a
frame opens the linked file WITHIN THE SAME FRAME.
17. The syntax for assigning a name to a frame is
<FRAME SRC=”URL” NAME=”NAME” />
18. To use the same target for all links in a
page, add the target attribute to the BASE element in the document head.
19. The first step in controlling the behavior of
hyperlinks in a framed page is to give each frame on the page a(n) NAME.
20. Information, information, INformation
are frame names that are NOT the same as “INFORMATION”?
21. You can use the TARGET attribute to open a
linked document in a specific frame.
22. The BASE element is useful when your page
contains a lot of links that all point to the same target.
23. RESERVED target names are special names that
can be used in place of a frame name as the target.
24. All reserved target names begin with AN
UNDERSCORE to distinguish them from other target names.
25. To allow your Web site to be viewable using
browsers that do not support frames, as well as by those that do, you can use
the <NOFRAMES> tag to create a section of your HTML file containing code
for browsers incapable of viewing frames.
