I am contemplating having a website developed that functions similarly to frames, but I realize that technology is antiquated. What is the present day version of this?
Something with similar functionality as this site: www.3phw.com
Do you know an example of a website with whatever new technology currently exists?
Also, in a site like the above, do they need to get clearance from the sites they link into?
Thanks very much

iframes maybe?
or better still consider using AJAX.
I myself am not a web developer but I have heard so much noise about AJAX that I guess its worth checking out and especially since you seemed interested in new stuff, thought I would suggest it!
My 2 cents!

Regular HTML frames are still very much in use, because they provide a simple and easy to implement functionality.
You can also use iframes, which is frame within a document without having to create a frameset. You can also use scrollable divs where you heavily utilize DHTML. Here's a website that gives scrollable divs examples:

I would suggest that iframe might be the way to go. Regular framesets can also be used in this situation as long as you make sure to follow some guidelines.
I suggest reading this article:
