Certainly, for what it is good at. The only thing we need frames for here is to include the logfile and the per-block details window. Both of which are optional, and should not be on by default. The logfile is open-ended in length, so we can either use an IFRAME or original frames. The per-block details window _could_ be done inline, but I don't see what the point would be to rerender the whole page just to get one block's details.
PS I repeat, they should be off by default. A comment earlier which was more a kneejerk explosion than anything else was widely interpreted as meaning that I wanted the log on by default. I don't. Now. And the block details window is meaningless in a non-cellular representation like the various progress bar designs we have been discussing. > > -- > Greg Wooledge | "Truth belongs to everybody." > greg at wooledge.org | - The Red Hot Chili Peppers > http://wooledge.org/~greg/ | -- Matthew Toseland toad at amphibian.dyndns.org amphibian at users.sourceforge.net Freenet/Coldstore open source hacker.
