    IFRAME not available with frame cabable browser??

    Is this still valid:

    "16.5 Inline frames: the IFRAME element
    ....
    The contents of the IFRAME element, on the other hand, should only be
    displayed by user agents that do not support frames or are configured not to
    display frames."

    Any browser I know displays IFRAME elements within a HTML page...

    Check out Lynx sometime. And AvantGo. And maybe a few other browsers that
    aren't graphical browsers on a desktop computer.

    And better graphical browsers can be configured to disable inline frame
    support.

      I suspect that your understanding of the spec lingo needs adjusting.

      "Content" as used in the spec quoted above is not what is displayed
      inside the iframe, it's this:

      <iframe ...>Content</iframe>
