Default Replacing Frames with CSS

Greetings!

I am seriously considering using CSS instead of frames for many resons, and found quite a few fantastic templates for beginners such at myself at CSSLibrary.

For example these: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/style/la...-frame-layout/

I am just wondering how, in effect, would CSS be able to replace frames?

I am unable to link from one CSS frame"to another with
Code:
target="target"
.

Is there a different tag for linking within CSS frames?

CSS can mimic the appearance of frames but, not their function. Javascript, iframes and/or Ajax would be required to do that.

What I've done (tell me if this is crazy) is put iframes on top of the CSS frames.

One thing is that a strange is a certain CSS frame overlaps an iframe.

See the right part here.

Everything loads nicely, but click on a link in the top menu.

A bit of text is clipped on the right.

Any idea how this can be avoided?
