| Title | Misleading title for a frame in a frameset |
|---|---|
| Description | A document with a frameset; the frameset has a navigation frame at the left and a content frame at the right.
Activating a link in the navigation frame causes the corresponding document to be loaded in the content frame.
The title attributes on the frame elements are "Content" and "Navigation", respectively (instead of "Navigation" and "Content").
