NAME
    CGI::AppBuilder::Frame - Configuration initializer

SYNOPSIS
      use CGI::AppBuilder::Frame;

      my $ab = CGI::AppBuilder::Frame->new(
         'ifn', 'my_init.cfg', 'opt', 'vhS:a:');
      my ($q, $ar, $ar_log) = $ab->start_app($0, \%ARGV);
      print $ab->disp_form($q, $ar);

DESCRIPTION
    This class provides methods for reading and parsing configuration files.

  new (ifn => 'file.cfg', opt => 'hvS:')
    This is a inherited method from CGI::AppBuilder. See the same method in
    CGI::AppBuilder for more details.

  frame_set ($q, $fr, $pr)
    Input variables:

      $fr - frame set definiton array reference. The $fr contains two
            elements [$hr, $ar]: 
            $hr - a hash ref containing the frame set attributes
            $ar - a array ref containing hash references defining each
                  frames in the frame set.
      $pr  - tag attribute array ref. It contains three elements:
        class - CSS class name
        attr  - attribute string such as 'width=5 onChange=js_func'
        hr    - hash ref with key and value pairs. This will be obtained
                from $fr for each frame set and frame.
        pretty - whether to add line breaks

    Variables used or methods called:

      CGI::AppBuilder::Table
        html_tag - generate HTML tags
      CGI::AppBuilder::Message
        echo_msg - display message

    How to use:

    The following shows how to define the frame array ($fr):

      +-+----+    The following defines the left layout:
      | | T  |    
      | +----+    [{cols=>"150,*"},[     
      | |    |       {src=>"left.htm",name=>"L"},  
      |L| C  |      [{rows=>"100,*,50"},[           
      | |    |         {src=>"top.htm",name=>"T"},   
      | |----|         {src=>"main.htm",name=>"C"},
      | | B  |         {src=>"bottom.htm",name=>"B"}]]]
      +-+----+    ]

    In YAML, here is how it looks like:

      ---
      cols: 150,\*
        - src: left.htm
          name: L
        - rows: 100,\*,50
          - src: top.htm
            name: T
          - src: main.htm
            name: C
          - src: bottom.htm
            name: B
      ...

      +-+------+  The following defines the left layout:
      | |  T   |  
      | +----+-+  [{cols=>"150,*"},[     
      | |    | |     {src=>"left.htm",name=>"L"},  
      |L| C  |R|     [{rows=>"100,*,50"},[           
      | |    | |       {src=>"top.htm",name=>"T"},   
      | |    | |       [{cols=>"*,100"},[
      | |----+-+         {src=>"main.htm",name=>"C"},
      | |      |         {src=>"right.htm",name=>"R"}] ] ],
      | |   B  |       {src=>"bottom.htm",name=>"B"}]]
      +-+----+-+  ]

    In YAML, here is how it looks like:

      ---
      cols: 150,\*
        - src: left.htm
          name: L
        - rows: 100,\*,50
          - src: top.htm
            name: T
          - cols: \*,100
            - src: main.htm
              name: C
            - src: right.htm
              name: R
          - src: bottom.htm
            name: B
      ...

    Here is the testing codes:

      my $fr = [{cols=>"150,*"},[
                {src=>"left.htm",name=>"L"},
               [{rows=>"100,*,50"},[
                   {src=>"top.htm",name=>"T"},
                   {src=>"main.htm",name=>"C"},
                   {src=>"bottom.htm",name=>"B"}]
               ]]
             ];
      my $pr = {pretty=>1};
      print $obj->frame_set($fr,$pr);
      # the following is the result:

      <FRAMESET cols='150,*'>
        <FRAME src='left.htm' name='L'>
        <FRAMESET rows='100,*,50'>

          <FRAME src='main.htm' name='C'>
          <FRAME src='bottom.htm' name='B'>
        </FRAMESET>
      </FRAMESET>

      $pr->{_frameset_count} = 0;  # reset frame set counter
      my $f2 = [ {cols=>"150,*"},[
                 {src=>"left.htm",name=>"L"},
                [{rows=>"100,*,50"},[
                   {src=>"top.htm",name=>"T"},
                  [{cols=>"*,100"},[
                     {src=>"main.htm",name=>"C"},
                     {src=>"right.htm",name=>"R"}]
                  ],
                   {src=>"bottom.htm",name=>"B"}]
                ]]
         ];
      print $obj->frame_set($f2,$pr);
      # the following is the result:

      <FRAMESET cols='150,*'>
        <FRAME src='left.htm' name='L'>
        <FRAMESET rows='100,*,50'>
          <FRAME src='top.htm' name='T'>
          <FRAMESET cols='*,100'>
            <FRAME src='main.htm' name='C'>
            <FRAME src='right.htm' name='R'>
          </FRAMESET>
          <FRAME src='bottom.htm' name='B'>
        </FRAMESET>
      </FRAMESET>
