Can frame content be inline?

[Bob Mariotti]

I'm looking for some advice on this one.

I'm creating a page that, as planned, consists of a static frame on
the top of the window and the bottom section is a scrollable list.

The top frame contains a logo and two buttons: one for print and one
for closing the window.

The problem I have is that the list is dynamically generated by the
cgi delivering the page. As a result I cannot use the src= parameter
because there is NO SOURCE to reference.

Is it possible to omit the src= parameter and follow the frame tag
with normal html output?

Or, better yet, can anyone provide an example of how to accomplish
this without using frames?

Any recommendations, pointers, references or advice will be greatly
appreciated.

Bob

src="/cgi-bin/yourscript.pl?parameter=value"

and yourscript.pl generates the HTML. If perl, use the CGI library and
save yourself a lot of trouble.
