Secs 92.1
<Frameset Rows="rowlist" Cols="collist" >
Each of rowlist and collist must be null or comma separated values defining Nrow by Ncol frames -- typically one of these is unity as one uses hierarchical Framesets to get a nonuniform grid
Following <Frameset> there must be the correct number of frames defined either by a <Frame> tag or by <Frameset></Frameset> hierarchical definition
rowlist and collist can be comma separated mixture of
  • absolute number such as 100 specifying pixels to be allocated
  • percentage such as 30% specifying percentage of available space
  • * notation where a single * means all the remaining space
  • rows="50,2*,*,*" means first frame gets 50 pixels while remaining 3 frames get 50%,25%,25% respectively of remaining space
