But heck, the way you're using frames, it's got a great (...) (25 years ago, 11-Sep-99, to lugnet.publish)

| | | | | | (...) The main problem with this is the way Lynx deals with frames -- it shows you the "NOFRAMES" part, AND gives you links to the frames. So you end up with a (slightly kludgy) way to use the frames, right next to a message from the website telling (...) (25 years ago, 12-Sep-99, to lugnet.publish)
