right, you can do some logic with JavaScript (don't confuse that with Java
please!). There's a big BUT there - you can never be sure the client
browser gets it right, be it because JS is switched off, or some malicious
guy tries to trick your application.

Layout is a matter of taste, there's no final judgement about this, I
believe. I don't really like your particular layout of the site for two
reasons:
- the graphics render horribly (still alpha, going to be better?)
- the list scrolls endlessly - there must be a better way to display
records found
That doesn't mean that frames are the way to go - usually frames make a
site more complicated from a technical view. With languages like PHP it's
very easy to generate good-looking pages that are easy to navigate - start
your thoughts by trying to separate data and logic from presentation.

If he's the boss you should do what he wants; if you believe you have a
better concept try to make an alternative presentation.

Presentation doesn't have anything to do with web programming - that's the
HTML stuff. It's just composed by your application. Have a look at some
template engines like Smarty to get an idea.
