Hi Sumit,

Frame is like a Div tag used for separation of content of large web
page. I believe that the frame is now out dated. Instead Web
developers use Div classes and region tags.

Iframe is an inline frame used to display content of other website or
any advertisement in the web page. Utube video frame is an example of
Iframe.

We need to test content of iframe for accessibility as it is consider
a part of complete web page. The Symantec structure of the iframe
should match with the web page in wich the iframe is imbedded.

That's what I know.

Cheers,
