First, please be careful in spelling web addresses. In one place you
spelled it egroups.com, and in another egroup.com (no S.) These are
two different sites. But you must have meant egroups.com since the
other one doesn't have frames. This site does have frames, but frames
don't make a site inaccessible. In fact, when used properly, frames
can enhance accessibility. For example, if the links are put in one
frame and content in another, we can read the information on a page
without having to hear all those links. Also, if a page has very many
links, it's hard to find the one you want. If the links were divided
into categories and each category was in a separate frame, you could
find what you want with alot less tabbing around. Try experimenting
with frames. Use control tab to move through them. Frames called
"header" or "menu," usually contain just links. Frames called "main"
or "body," contain primarily content but may also contain links. If
you need any more help using frames, let me know. But, don't equate
frames with inaccessibility.
