A frameset inside another frameset is called a nested frameset. Each new frameset you create includes its own frameset HTML document and frame documents.
Use nested frames to set up multiple frames for a document. For example, a document with three frames might display a company's logo in a frame at the top of the document, navigation controls in a frame on the left side of a document, and content in a third frame.
To create a nested frameset:
1 | Place the insertion point in the frame where you want to insert a nested frameset. |
2 | Do one of the following: |
![]() |
Choose Modify > Frameset > Split Frame Up, Down, Left, or Right. |
![]() |
In the Frames panel on the Objects palette, select a frameset icon. |
![]() |
Choose Insert > Frames > Left, Right, Top, Bottom, Left_Top, Left Top, Top Left, Split. |
![]() |
In the Document window, Alt-drag (Windows) or Option-drag (Macintosh) a frame border to split the frame vertically or horizontally. |
![]() |
