The only time saving would be that you load a header, footer and sidebar once, however every content
page with associate images or other external content will still take time to load, and in general if
the header and footer and sidebar having limited graphics or other external content then you are
only saving a few seconds overall after the initial frameset loads.

JavaScript/DHTML and framesets are both support in all currently used graphical browsers. Java
Applets are not widely supported today.

Server-side scripting is browser independent.
