Section 508 Standards: Title All Frames

Section 508 Standards: Subpart B -- Technical Standards: § 1194.22 Web-based intranet and internet information and applications.

(i) Frames shall be titled with text that facilitates frame identification and navigation.

This can be accomplished in two ways:

  • Make sure that you put a descriptive TITLE element within the HEAD tag on every frame.
  • Use the TITLE attribute within the body of each frame.

An example of the latter is:

<frameset cols="30%, 60%">
<frame src="navlinkgs.html" name="navlinkgs" title="Navigational Links Frame">
<frame src="navlinkgs.html" name="navlinkgs" title="Contents Frame">
</frame>
