Hi Rovert,

I have give it more than one thought to it. Iostream navigation style
use frames. Frames are not part of XHTML because they cause lot of
troubles.
We have implemented a new navigation approach based on GropedLinks ()
select boxes. Look at the top-right corner of the page:

GroupedLinks is documented here:

IMHO this select boxes offers a great deal of functionality and do not
get in your way.

We are working in an automated algorithm to make the GroupedLinks
definition files.
Do you think your docs will work fine with GroupedLinks instead of frames?

Best regards
Matias
