heh frames are the least of my (and everyone else's?) concern about not being able to order from Warpnet. :)

I believe that Java/JavaScript should only be used if it's absolutely necassary, and it is certainly not the case with WarpMart.. They could make the whole thing look and work exactly the same, minus some trivial details that don't matter. It's not practical to use Java just so thumbnails can be updated without loading a whole new page- Using forms as a "as soon as you click on this it appears courtesy of java," thing except that for the 70% of people who don't have java, you're fucked. __ __\ \ / /_\ \ \_____/ www.freq-div.home.ml.org
