I was talking with a colleague about a problem we were having and he suggested that one possible solution was to use an IFrame.
I haven’t needed to use an IFrame for he last 5 years and I’ve done full time web application development, but it made me wonder if the concept of the IFrame and Framesets is something that is supported by browsers for backwards compatibility but really shouldn’t be actively used in development any more?
it’s one of the major application integration methods for facebook and myspace. and most wysiwyg html editors rely on iframe. thickbox uses iframe. drupal uses iframes. and on and on… so not sure if it’s so very simple to just call iframe obsolete. i imagine it’ll be actively used for a good long while still…
