Based on another forum, I started out using both div and iframes on my site. The idea was to use CSS more as the layout manager, and iframes more as the content manager.

I tested mainly in Safari, where it works flawlessly. In Firefox, however, I can't get the submenus "Why Join" or "Job Openings" to update the iframe.
I'm beginning to wonder whether I should have tried to do everything using div, but it looks like that would require javascript, which I'd rather not do.
Please tell me I'm simply missing something easy.
Full Version: div, iframe, or both
I think you should. Iframes are no better than frames.

If you use frames for practical reasons, to avoid repeating code in each page, use includes instead.

Don't overdo it with the DIVs. They aren't a magic key to CSS. What CSS can do with a DIV it can do with another element as well. DIV and SPAN are the last resort when there aren't more meaningful elements to use. DIV is good for making sections, DIVisions, but otherwise, use sparingly. But maybe you already knew that.
