[opencms-dev] jsptemplates / frames

[Claus Priisholm]

Forget about the old XmlTemplate stuff - while it is still in v.5 
consider it is deprecated.

First consider if you really need frames, generally people use frames 
for two reasons 1) manage multiple pages with having to update multiple 
menus and 2) to provide a scrolled area.

As for 1 - OpenCms builds the menus for so no need for frames here
As for 2 - Use CSS to provide the scrolled area.

I say this because things tend to become convoluted when involving 
frames. But other than that there's nothing special about using frames 
with OpenCms.

If your question is more on how to make any JSP template I suggest 
looking some of the examples - there at least the release note stuff to 
look at once you've loaded the system. There also a more elaborate 
example available for download from the opencms.org and finally you 
take a look on Matt's OpenCms book.
