I’ve framed Google!<\/p>\n

After many heated discussions concerning frames, my conclusion is that either you’re a frames zealot or a frames bigot, there’s no middle ground. Well, zealots rejoice! My portal site now does Google framed searches. Type in a search in the google box, hit enter, and the results are displayed down the left pane. Click an item in the results, and the target is displayed in the right frame. It’s the only way to browse, IMHO (being a frames zealot)…<\/p>\n

Read on for the techy details…<\/p>\n

I slap a [BASE TARGET=”main”] into it, and viola, results are displayed in the main tab.Try it out, I know it will be put to good use by me anyway.
