Abstract
A web page authoring program allows a user to create a multiple frame web page by manipulating a graphical display representing the web page. The program presents a graphical display representing how the web page will appear when viewed through a web browser and allows the user to manipulate the graphical display directly to divide the web page into multiple frames. The program also allows the user to target a frame in the web page to display a particular web resource when the page is viewed through a web browser. In this regard, the program presents a graphical image representing the frameset structure of the web page and allows the user to target a frame by selecting a corresponding portion of the graphical image with a pointing device. In saving a portion of the web page, the program presents a miniature graphical image representing the structure of the web page and including a highlighted portion representing the portion of the web page to be saved and, in response to an instruction provided by the user, saves the portion of the web page in a storage medium.
