Linking and Liability for Creators [Part IX]

Here we introduce the problems of frames. Frames are used to subdivide web pages. For example, the hypothetical site described in the Part VIII could be divided into three frames, with one containing a chronological listing of the various comic strips and their titles, another dedicated to the display of the strips themselves, and a third presenting the biography of the frame's creator. Regardless of the particular strip being displayed in the second frame, the index and biographical information are constantly visible in the first and third frames. As with certain IMG links, frames can mislead the viewer of a site as to the creator of its content. (Brad Bolin of www.bitlaw.com)
