[Javascript] Question regarding Netscape

[dlovering at gazos.com (David Lovering)]

Multi-frame, as in a frameset with multiple frame definitions.

Ultra-humongous: each frame references external source files with 4MB+ of
working code (HTML, PHP, Java applets, JavaScript, etc.), of which almost
none is image based.  I've seen similar problems with smaller files, but the
case is blatant when things are so big.
