Why teach frames? Aren't frames deprecated in the latest (HTML 5, as of this post, 05/06/17) standard?

the <iframe> element, admittedly is still widely used and under consideration to be extended. the <frameset> element, on the other hand, is deprecated and does not render properly in most current browsers. It seems a mistake for SoloLearn to teach it, though I believe HTML5 is the subject of one of its subsequent courses. Why not teach the current standard from the start? Perhaps for HTML emails? Any other reasons?

What is deprecated in latest Html5 is the <frameset> ( and so the linked <frame> element ). The <iframe> element isn't deprecated at all, and is even recommended in certain circumstances ^^ https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/iframe Permissivity of Html, provide browsers capacities to correct invalid code: it's widely probable that an invalid <frame> will be interpreted as a <iframe> ( guessing you've made a typo mistake )... so, you will not see any difference, until exploration of DOM with developers tools ;) Anyway, <frame> wasn't the same as <iframe>: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/frame
