Item Number: H70: Using frame elements to group blocks of repeated material...
Part of Item: Description
Comment Type: TE
Comment (Including rationale for any proposed change):
This technique suggests that using frames to group material is on par with using headers, div\'s, link groups etc. Is that the intent?

Is this really a problem? Are there examples of sites that change frame content types?

The requirement for NOFRAMES has been dropped. Is this an oversight or is NOFRAMES really no longer necessary?

Proposed Change:
Add text that explains this technique is useful *if* frames are used in the page. If frames are not used then don\'t add them just for grouping blocks of material.
