Ask PG: Can you add a frame to visited pages?

[ynd]

The problem with the current situation lies with the way I use YC(I don't think I'm the only one). I usually go through multiple pages on YC, opening the links I like as tabs in the background. The current system forces me to trackback the pages I like just so I can vote.

One solution is to add a frame on top of pages accessed from YC that allows you to vote for the page. I think the frame works well in this case because links are usually articles. So usually, you just read the page, and then close it. The frame is not a nuisance in that case.

Thanks

Open two pages for each link, the link itself and the comments behind that. Don't forget to refresh the comment page when you want to contribute.

the median user of this site is against framing

I love the frame reddit has and most folks here use reddit so I disagree.

what frame?

about 10% of the sites have javascript that forces the page to break out of the frame.
