Using Tabs and Frames

[active]

I'm creating a site using vs2005 and the main page is a tab control.

It just occurred to me that probably what happens is the when the site is
accessed the entire site must be down loaded. That is all the tabs and their
contents must be down loaded. Is that correct?

I went that way because I read that using Frames was going out of style. Why
I have no idea. Is Frames a good way to go?

I didn't think to look. Does vs2005 have a control for frames? If not and
they are a good way to go how do I include it?



Thanks much for any help

There is no Publisher 2005.

Neither Pub 2003 or 2007 has any feature called a "tab control", that I know
of. IE7 and FireFox have the ability to view pages under a tab, and you can
view Publisher webpages that way, just as you can any other webpage. Please
explain in more detail what you are talking about.

Publisher does not directly support Framing. Most people do not frame their
site as the search engines will not be able to index them and because of
other issues. So, no, in my opinion framing a site is not a good idea. The
use of iframes for some limited content on a page might make sense in some
circumstances.

You're asking a VS question in a Publisher newsgroup.

Sorry, I thought this was for web design in general.
