you don't need frames to make tabs. I guess that a form does not post data from within another frame (frames are ugly, therefore I'm not using them).

I don't know what makes frames so attractive to beginners. I think it's the fact that it provide concrete boundaries, which is the same reason why mature developers don't like them...at least one of the reasons. =)
