Opening tag : <NOFRAMES>
Closing tag: </NOFRAMES>

Purpose:
Frames are a simple way of setting your page up, often using separate frames for navigation for example. That way when a user moves around your site they don't need to reload the same navigation pane for each page. Noframes is used to define a page to use when a browser doesn't support frames. Many search engines do not correctly index framed sites, and frames don't always appear consistently on different browsers. There are alternative approaches to creating frames, such as using CSS, so we recommend you don't use frames!

Attributes:
class=class
- Allows a class style of formatting to be added for a tag.

dir=direction
- Useful for languages which should be read from right to left.

event=javascript
- Links an event on the page to some javascript.

id="name"
- ID's allow dynamic control over the page.

lang=language
- Specifies the language of the page.

style=style
- Specifies to use a style from the CSS.

title=title
- The text can also have a title.

Example:

<frameset>
<frame name="left" src="leftnav.htm">
<frame name="right" src="content.htm">
<noframes>
<body>
This is for browsers that can't use frames!
</body>
</noframes>
</frameset>
